2B ❚ WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21, 2019 ❚ APPEAL TRIBUNE SPORTS BRIEFS FAA shares details from Earnhardt Jr. plane crash The Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement Friday that the plane carrying Dale Earn- hardt Jr. and his family experienced a “hard land- ing, bounced, departed the runway and caught fire” on Thursday. Earnhardt Jr., his wife, Amy, and daughter, Isla, and two pilots survived the fiery plane crash at the Elizabethton Munici- pal Airport in Tennessee. The Cessna 680A Citation Latitude, a 10-seat plane owned by Earnhardt, ran off a 5,000-foot runway before going down a ditch and through a chain-link fence. Earnhardt was taken to a local hospital for obser- vation with no serious in- juries. He has since been discharged. Elizabethton fire chief Barry Carrier confirmed to USA TODAY Sports that the plane wrapped around a fence at the end of the runway and slid to a fiery stop in a grassy area before the Earnhardts, pi- lots and a dog evacuated the crash site. “The first word to come to my mind is that they were very lucky,” Carrier said. “It looks like every- thing worked in their fa- vor instead of against them.” The airport is located about 15 miles south of Bristol Motor Speedway, site of this weekend’s NASCAR race. Earnhardt has been part of NBC Sports’ NASCAR broad- cast crew since he retired from full-time racing at the end of the 2017 sea- son, but he will not work the Bristol race. Kelly Earnhardt Miller, general manager of JR Motorsports and Earn- hardt’s sister, issued a statement Friday: “We want to reiterate our ap- preciation to the NASCAR community, first re- sponders, medical staff and race fans everywhere for the overwhelming support in the last 24 hours. Dale, Amy, Isla and our two pilots are doing well. We are assisting the Federal Aviation Admini- stration and the National Transportation Safety Board in the investigation and will have no further comment at this time.” AP source: Jets lose LB Williamson for season with torn ACL NEW YORK – A person familiar with the nature of the injury says New York Jets linebacker Avery Williamson has a torn knee ligament that will sideline him for the sea- son.
