Jack Roush, known to many as “The Cat in the Hat” has shown that he still has a life or two left. Roush was flying his Hawker Beechcraft Premier jet into Oshkosh, WI, for the upcoming EEA Airventure Show, when the airplane crashed on landing at Wittman Regional Airport. The accident occurred around 6:15 p.m. local time on Tuesday.

Circumstances of the accident are unclear at the moment, but Roush was taken to hospital suffering serious but non-life threatening injuries, according to the attending physician, Dr. Kevin Wasco. Roush is in the Theda Clark Medical Center.

Jack Roush is an avid aircraft enthusiast and owns a number of airplanes, including WW II P-51 Mustang fighter craft. This is not the first time that Roush has survived a air crash. In 2002, Roush borrowed an experimental plane for a short flight, but hit an elevated wire on landing. The plane crashed into a lake near Birmingham, AL.

A witness to the crash was a Navy SEAL, who rescued Roush from the sunken airplane. Roush was in hospital for 12 days.

All the staff at Power TV Media send their wishes for a speedy recovery.

Even after being injured from his plane crash, Jack Roush still had the ability to walk out of the airplane.
