  • Twenty-one-year-old student pilot Taylor Hash met veteran pilot Chris Yates for the first time after he talked her through landing a plane. After taking off from a Michigan airport, Hash was about to land her plane when the nose gear fell off. Yates saw the nose gear fall and knew he had to help the pilot. That's when air-traffic control let Yates guide Hash through her emergency landing. Inside Edition's Jim Moret was there as the young pilot and hero reunited.

    I flew through some imc weather and was stuck for seem like more than 10 minutes before when I was a student pilot, its always reassuring once you make it back to the ground, congrats to Taylor for staying claim and sticking to her training.

    There's a shortage of pilots now that the airlines pushed pilots to take early retirement during the worst of Covid, even though the companies got lots of $ to prevent layoffs. It's great this young woman plans to be a professional. It's so expensive to learn to fly well and takes a lot of time to get enough substantial experience, so if she wants help paying for her training so she can be a professional pilot, I have no problem with people who have money helping her and other pilots in training.

    I have a question for other pilots. Shouldn't her instructor have at least been at the airport? It says her helper was just another pilot getting ready to take off when he saw the wheel come off. I've seen another video of a very similar situation, and the instructor was there, and he was the one who helped talk them down

      larger flight schools have multiple instructors, and all instructors have days off for a variety of reasons. A different instructor met with her before the flight; but may have decided to stay quite once they were notified and they heard that Chris was working with her so well over the radio. Too many cooks can spoil more than the meal.
