Pilot Walks Away From Crash In Cobb County One Minute After Take Off

A small airplane took off from Cobb County International Airport Thursday morning. Within sixty seconds, the pilot knew he had an engine failure. He realized he wasn't going to make it back to the airport and knew he needed to make an emergency landing. The two-seater plane went “down” near Highway 41 and Cobb Parkway, just north of Kennesaw Due West Road.

Call it a miracle...the pilot was able to walk away with just a minor leg injury.
