A student pilot in Argentina safely landed a plane after her instructor jumped out mid-flight. Authorities are investigating the unusual incident, which left the instructor dead.
That is a super fucked up situation, inaccurate headline notwithstanding. “Student pilot forced to land plane alone” is not news- that literally describes basic flight training. But it makes a better headline apparently than “licensed pilot safely returns to airport after instructor jumps out during training flight.”
