A PILOT was lucky to escape with his life after his plane crash landed in a garden in Cheltenham, Gloucs, this morning. The 76-year-old man narrowly missed a nearby school and houses before crashing the single-engine Cirrus plane in to a fir tree just 20 feet from the home of Karen Dean and her partner Mike Carter. The pilot sustained minor injuries from the plane crash and was treated at the scene by paramedics. No-one else was hurt in the plane crash incident. A crew from Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service is currently making the area safe.
