TURKEY, Texas – Once again, a gender reveal was botched, causing a plane crash in Texas, according to the National Transportation Safety Board.
The pilot reported, that while maneuvering at a low altitude in an aerial applicator airplane, he dumped about 350 gallons of pink water for a gender reveal. The airplane “got too slow”, aerodynamically stalled, impacted terrain, and came to rest inverted.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage, right wing, and empennage.
The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
The Federal Aviation Administration inspector reported that the accident occurred during a low pass for a gender reveal celebration. He added that there were two persons on board the single seat airplane. The two people on board were not seriously injured.
Last month, a family in Iowa constructed a pipe bomb for a gender revealthat exploded and killed a grandmother.
