> dammmmn… how do you hit a prop? lol, good thing she is getting better thou.

exited the plane, engine still running. Apparently it was a “tourist” type flight to view christmas lights from altitude and they were changing passengers. ne article said she was walking around front to shake the pilots hand and well, boom.

I can telly you that even with the maker tips, a spinning prop is hard to see even at idle and if you’re not accustomed to aircraft and have a brain fart you can get in the wrong place real quick. When I was flying quite often I was always nervous with people outside the cockpit and would always shut down if someone was approaching on the tarmac during preflight check and warmup.
