John-David Duggar’s Plane Crashes, Flying With Wife & Kid!
One of the eldest kids from the Duggar family, John David Duggar, was involved in a plane crash. As per, The Sun, this unfortunate incident happened a few weeks before his brother Josh Duggar went on trial for “possessing” and “receiving” child pornography content virtually. Apparently, the younger brother holds a “commercial pilot license”. Apart from this, he is also in charge of ‘Medic Corps’, which is a non-profit organization.
Moreover, the company is responsible for giving “disaster relief” and also “deploying” air crafts. It turns out Waverly, Tenessee’s Sheriff department, gave verification of the occurrence. Therefore, the plane involved was a Piper PA-30, and the crash took place on October 29, 2021, at 7:00 pm. Additionally, they also made the revelation that insufficient fuel led to the accident. Therefore, the vehicle made an emergency landing on a field.
Looks like John David Duggar was flying the plane himself. But the scary part remains that his wife Abbie and daughter Grace were also traveling in the six-seater. Luckily, there were no injuries. However, the aircraft got exposed to significant “damage.” Yet, the celebrity made the call to 911. But no medics were present at the scene. Now, the National Transportation Safety Board is in the middle of investigating the incident.
John-David Duggar Has Been An Avid Flyer!
John-David Duggar has a history of flying trailing behind him. More so, as per Federal Aviation, he just got his commercial license exactly a week prior to the occurrence. In fact, the plane he was in, i.e., Piper PA-30, was in registration under his company, Medic Choppers LLC. Looks like they got it in July 2020. The Duggar family member’s wife Abbie also holds a “student pilot certificate” that she got in August 2020.
Another interesting fact remains that the couple celebrates all their milestones by flying. As a result, their proposal also took place around tons of planes. Furthermore, they captured their wedding photos in an airport as well. Additionally, the duo also announced their first-ever pregnancy in an airplane. They did so by showing off a baby-sized onesie that said “baby passenger on board”.
In fact, they were sitting in a cockpit in the post. Later on, their caption said that John-David and Abbie are on “cloud nine” as they get to welcome their little daughter into the world. It turns out that they were feeling “amazing” about being “parents” and having their own child to raise. Last but not least, they extended gratitude towards God for “blessing” them with a new life. They also referred to it as a “new adventure”. Keep checking TV Season & Spoilers for more Counting On related updates.
