A plane plummeted into Commencement Bay and sunk Tuesday afternoon after colliding with another small aircraft, reported KIRO 7 Eyewitness News.


Wow! One aircraft sustained damage to its landing gear housing, but still landed without a problem. The other aircraft lost its propeller and was sent into a spiral/spin. That aircraft still made a good ditching into the water and both occupants were rescued by a boater. That’s some incredible good fortune and good flying skills for everyone!

One of the people pulled from the water was the pilot's 70-something mother.

Happy Thanksgiving, Mom! You're alive!
