A pilot involved in a crash where his plane landed on top of an SUV has released home video of the crash.
William Davis was trying to land a 2005 Cessna Skyhawk plane at the Northwest Regional Airport in Roanoke, Texas, on Saturday when he clipped an SUV on the runway.
Meanwhile, his wife was filming the landing.
In the video, you can see the plane coming in, when just seconds before it crosses a road, a black SUV drives underneath it, causing the plane to nearly peel off the SUV?s roof.
The crash sent debris flying, including the plane?s landing gear. The plane took a sharp nose-dive into the ground.
The couple in the car, identified by DPS as Frank and Heather Laudo of Flower Mound, were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
On Saturday, the couple talked to NBC 5 about the incident.
"I saw it about a second before it hit us. I was opening my mouth to go 'duck!'," Frank Laudo said. "The next thing you know there's shattering."
"It it was kind of like a hawk with it's talons coming up and scooping the car,"?Heather Laudo said. "And the talons breaking off."
Right now it is unclear why the car was on the runway.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating.
