Carolina aviatrix makes emergency Turnpike landing
Barbara OConnor, 18, piloting a J-3 Piper, made an emergency landing on a three lane section of the West Virginia Turnpike near Mossy, after running out of fuel on a turnpike trip from Greenstone to Greensboro. Police blocked Memorial Airport for refueling before her solo flight resumed en route to Raleigh County. Her husband Daniel O’Connor, a Piedmont Airlines pilot, says she is adventurous and always seeks new challenges.
