Surviving a Plane Crash with Nate Calvin // S2E13
This is not a regular Inspire Excellence podcast episode.
This episode goes deeply into the specifics of the event of a plane crash that involved only one survivor, Nate Calvin. Nate was in a private plane, when travesty struck. "...the wingtip struck a tree. The plane spun around, hit a stand of pine trees and broke in half." The L-IV's fuselage impacted inverted, about 50 feet east of the runway with the tail, separated, about 30 feet behind it. Both wings were sheared off and a wingtip was found "lodged about 6 feet high in a pine trunk." This is the first time ever that this story has been shared publicly and in this amount of detail.
Nate walks us through the series of events that happened before, during and after this tragic event. His story will have you listening to every word as he helps us visualize what it's really like to be in a plane crash. As a pilot himself, his understanding and breakdown of this event gives a unique perspective on this compelling story.
Nate Calvin is the CEO/President of Aero LEDs. AeroLEDs was formed in 2005 with the intent to redefine aviation lighting as it existed for the last 50 years. With great attention to engineering function balanced with due consideration to product form, they have redefined the expectations of what and how aircraft lighting will be judged.
**This podcast episode was recorded and had the publish date set before the helicopter crash involving Kobe Bryant and others. We pray for their families and hope all of us hug those around us just a little bit tighter. God bless.
