Below is an airplane of the same type as the charter Mrs. Mutt uses for campaign travel.
Here's the story from ABC Nooz

Mrs. Mett flies with no press (I wonder why?? ). On board were four staffers, two feds and three flight crew. Some sort of electrical fire occurred in the cockpit, they declared an emergency and diverted.
Here's picture of the firemen going on board after it landed.
why do I find myself not much giving a fuck?

I suppose this could happen to any plane? Or does the Rmoney campaign cut corners on flight safety?
Seems strange this would happen to her. Of course there is always the conspiracy theory - it's an excuse to keep Ann off the stage for a bit - we don't want too much exposure or people getting tired of her.

(23,272 posts)Selfishly, having Ann Rmoney become a Rethug martyr at the moment would certainly become a game changer.
However, I wouldn't wish having anyone having to experience dying in a terrifying plane crash.
