Actor and pilot Harrison Ford was hospitalized Thursday when the Ryan PT-22 he was flying landed in a golf course after departing Santa Monica Airport. CNN reported his son, Ben Ford, tweeted that his father is stable:"At the hospital. Dad is ok. Battered, but ok!" The incident prompted world-wide reaction and EAA Chairman Jack Pelton suggested the unplanned but relatively successful arrival on the golf course was the result of some good airmanship. "His flying experience and proficiency served him well today," Pelton said in a statement.
