Six people miraculously managed to survive a plane crash on Saturday afternoon after the pilot parachuted out of the aircraft near Butler Memorial Airport in Bates County, Missouri.

DON’T EVER POST TO ME AGAIN
The article NOW says: The six others on board were all skydivers and were all able to jump clear of the Cessna before it struck the ground.
Does autopilot have a "land" setting?
