In recent reports of the legal ramifications of the fixed wing crash in Columbia on Tom's last movie, mention is made that Tom was present during a preflight discussion between the three pilots that were later to crash.
A short time later Tom travelled by Squirrel back to base ahead of the fixed wing which clipped a ridge.
To his credit, such close proximity to tragedy has apparently not dettered Tom from flying.
An above average report linked below, goes into great detail about the crash, the relationships and liscences of all those involved including Tom who was at controls of the Aerostar during filming.
