Family wants airport shut down after UPS pilot crashes into potato plant | New York Post

A 30-year-old pilot was killed after she crashed into a potato processing plant in Idaho last week — and her mourning family wants the airport shut down for good, according to reports.

Brittney Infanger was flying UPS packages from Salt Lake City, Utah, to Burley, Idaho, when she crashed into the Gem State Processing plant after landing around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, her father told East Idaho News.

Infranger, an experienced pilot of 11 years, died on impact when her plane hit the plant, which is at the end of the runway at the Burley Airport.

“That airport needs to be closed, period,” her father, Jim Bob Infranger, told the outlet. “I’m a pilot myself and … many pilots have told me how unsafe the Burley airport is and how they’ve begged the county to relocate it.
