An unidentified pilot is expected to recover from injuries suffered in the emergency landing of a Douglas A-20 Havoc at an airshow in Laredo, Texas, on Sunday. The pilot was the only person aboard the Second World War twin-engine bomber and attack aircraft owned by Lewis Air Legends in San Antonio.
The accident occurred about 1:45 p.m., and witnesses said the plane caught fire while doing its demonstration at the Stars and Stripes Air Show. The aircraft is the last flyable A-20 and is one of 24 planes in the Air Legends collection, which includes the P-38 Glacier Girl.
