The one incident I am aware of a pilot having a heart attack while
flying. The Pilot on a Cross country flight landed and called the FBO
to call 911 for him. He had a 2nd Class Medical.


We had a local chiropodist who had a heart attack while approaching the Rock
Hill, SC airport in an Aerostar after a trip to the coast. He ended up crashing
in an intersection and burning up. Unfortunately he took his passenger with
him.

Nobody on the ground was injured and I don't believe there was any appreciable
property damage, except his own.

You can read about the resulting lawsuit at:
