This Saturday, the body of a middle-aged man was found in Miami, Florida. Investigation suggests that it may be the body of a 42-year-old passenger who fell from a jet on Thursday. The passenger was identified as Gerardo Nales according to local authorities, but further medical research is going underway to ensure that this is, in fact, Mr. Nales.
While the single-engine aircraft was airborne, the pilot noticed that the only other person aboard had "opened the back door and fell down the plane". The pilot claimed that he was flying at 1,800 feet, roughly two miles from land when the accident occurred. A police spokesperson remains skeptical, on behalf of the police community, whether the passenger jumped out of the plane or fell. The private jet landed at Kendall-Tamiami Executive Airport, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
While it has been disputed that the pilot may have been involved in the death of the passenger, I have my doubts. Reasons as to why he may have jumped or fell, I am unsure of. While there is a considerable amount of investigation taking place presently, I remain doubtful that the authorities will dig up any semblance of evidence regarding the "motives" behind the tragedy.
Humm, well, this is indeed strange. I mean, why would you open the back door to a plane you are riding on, while flying in the air? That just doesn't seem right. Unless the door was malfunctioning or something, but even still, why would you be over messing with a door? I hate this happened, and what a terrible death i must have been.
