Broward County Mayor Steve Geller defending North Perry Airport following Monday's deadly crash...
"There have been 14 accidents at North Perry over the last 5 years," Geller said. He adds, "North Perry is a safe airport there is some occasional pilot error it is no more on average per takeoff or landing than any other airport in South Florida."
Geller says he's analyzed statistics from every South Florida airport, and North Perry's numbers are "exactly average."
A 4-year-old boy died in Monday's crash when a small plane crashed into his mom's SUV in Pembroke Pines. His mother, Megan “Ki Ki” Bishop, remains in serious condition. The two people in the single-engine Beechcraft Bonanza died crashing just after takeoff from North Perry Airport.
The NTSB is investigating.
