Thank goodness they "ejected" safely!

"Today crews will remove the wreckage of a World War II airplane that crashed in Lincoln County. It happened just before noon Thursday. The "P-51 Mustang" was en-route from Rowan County to Ohio when the engine reportedly failed. Both the pilot, Jeff Michael, and passenger Butch Cauble, ejected before the crash. Michael walked away from the crash. Cauble was taken to the hospital with a broken arm. The FAA is investigating."
