I just switched over to CNN to watch Morgan Spurlock and saw this.

Vintage plane that lost engine power. Harrison Ford has been flying for a long time and I think that helped him alot. He was very lucky.

Raiders of the Lost Ark. Indy to Marion. "It's not the years, honey. It's the mileage."

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Professor Jones to Indy. "I didn't know you could fly a plane." Indy. "Fly, yes. Land, no."

Love Mr. Ford. Glad he is going to be okay.

Why they have an airport still there is beyond me. You have to fly out over the roofs of a neighborhood. Poor neighbors. This is the 5th crash in several years. Last time the plane went into a house. Harrison is an accomplished pilot though. I think it is legendary that he lives and breathes planes and flying.

As you all probably know by now it was an old WWII plane. They say he was lucky because the pilot seat in this small , small plane is the back seat. So when it nosedived, he was in the back seat of the plane. Thank God!

Small planes can be so dangerous. They crash frequently. He's lucky to be alive.

From the news reports that I've heard he is an excellent pilot and suffered non life threatening injuries from this crash. I wish him well.

I heard on the radio this morning that he had surgery during the night to repair a fractured pelvis, fractured wrist, and fractured ankle. I wonder if it was the same ankle he fractured last year? He was one lucky man!

Is it true that he crashed on the golf course near some MDs playing a round and they were able to hep him?

Yes, it is. One of the doctors was a spinal surgeon, so he could assess whether he had any spinal injuries and could be moved.

Lucky the seat was in the back. A good idea for many planes. Sort of a safety barrier. Baggage can be safely stored up front in a floor compartment.

As of last evening, no mention of his wife, Calista. His son, yes, who made a couple of positive statements. UPDATE: Calista is at the hospital, visiting Harrison. Also, She will join the cast of "Supergirl", a CBS series. I can't wait. Always enjoyed Calista in Ally McBeal, Brothers and Sisters.
