Woman Dies After Being Hit By Propeller Blades She Walked Into

Woman Dies After Being Hit By Propeller Blades She Walked Into
This is as tragic as it is bizarre.
A woman, Sarah Rhoads in the United States died from injuries she suffered when she walked into a spinning airplane propeller.
Rhoads, who was a staff of Start Skydiving, was taken to a hospital in Dayton, Ohio, right after the accident on Sunday.

The 24-year-old was reported to have ventured close to the parked twin-engine aircraft to speak to the pilot right before she walked into the propeller.
According to John Hart, the owner of Start Skydiving, it is difficult to see fast-spinning propeller blades.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the accident.
Mr Hart stated an annual Labor Day event at Middletown Regional Airport will be renamed in honour of Ms Rhoads.
May she rest in peace.
Rhoads
