Good job summarizing the story. It's crazy how this happened so close to where we all live. You don't think that stuff is actually possible until you see it right in front of you.
ReplyDeleteThere was another plane that crashed about two months ago in the same area! I wonder what was going on to cause the crash. I'm glad to hear that the pilot survived the crash.

ReplyDeleteMistakes:
• There are several in this sentence: The pilot who was survived the crash was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center according to authorites. Authorities is misspelled and there is an extra "was". There should be a comma to set off the phrase "who survived the crash" and a comma after Center.
