pilot mark love is still recovering. he talked to dennison by phone. he thanked me. he told me that many of the doctors that he spoke with have said we did play a role in the outcome of his life. if brian would not have removed him when he did, that he might not be with us. be ready to roll, everybody. up next, a homeowner records a massive tornado from his backyard, but see what happens when he becomes the target. oh! and i ll take you off-roading oh, my god. in the mudslides of colorado. they have no control at all.
how lucky i am to see you. i m very proud of him doing a job that s keeping people calm. and he s part of that calmness. and that shows you how well he handled that catastrophe. such a sweet boy, yes. tampa police pilot dave dennison and tactical flight officer brian gentry have been flying together for four years. we know each other s strengths and weaknesses kind of deal. it s like any married couple. you have your good days and bad days. it s around 11:00 p.m. 230 miles to the north, courier pilot mark love takes off from valdosta regional airport in georgia. heading for tampa, florida. soon their paths would cross.
it was right about here when gentry and dennison heard that first distress call. just before midnight. star track 800, i m going to need runway 1-0, i ve lost oil pressure. the cessna was failing. do you want the equipment, standing by? well, sir, let me talk to you on the ground. we re running a little rough here, but i should be able to make it. as we heard the aircraft in distress, we looked at each other and that is when it progressively started getting worse. then just across the horizon, gentry spots a flickering speck on his infrared camera and zeros in. it s just a small white light. as he gets closer you can start to discern more that it s an aircraft. and it is becoming larger. there s a portion of the tape that you actually hear us comment and i believe i said it, that he s going to make it, he s got it. he s got it from there.
but they were wrong. all arf vehicles, i need you to roll immediately. the guys soon realize it s a single engine cessna and it s heading straight towards traffic on tampa s busy memorial highway. you can see love s plane narrowly miss a truck and then he crashes, only 40 yards from the runway. pd-4, thanks. we lost his light, very short to the runway. the distress calls go silent, and the next thing dennison and gentry knew, their routine air patrol was about to become a dramatic rescue. i knew i was going to be able to put that aircraft on the ground a lot faster than they were going to be able to get there and get him out. while dennison shuts down the chopper, gentry leaps out and runs to the plane. the engine is on fire and the pilot is in bad shape. it was dark. he had hit the dashboard of the cockpit pretty hard with his face.
