Schum ran across the street barefoot, climbed over a sixfoothigh chainlink fence, and dashed about 100 yards toward the woods. When he got there, he discovered 51yearold pilot Stephen Bochter, his head bleeding, beside the burning plane. Bochter's passenger, his wife, Kim Brillo, was on the ground, unconscious. “She had blood all over her,” says Schum. “I thought she was dead.”
Jack Gleeson, 17, a high school student working a summer job at the airport, caught up with Schum and, with Bochter's help, lifted the chainlink fence and brought Brillo underneath it out. Moments later, the entire plane exploded.
After the rescue team arrived, Bochter and Brillo were airlifted to a nearby hospital and treated for cuts, injuries and Brillo's broken arm. Bochter, an experienced pilot, later said that the plane's electrical system had failed shortly after takeoff. He had been attempting to land at the East Hampton Airport when the plane began to drop suddenly. He managed to level the wings before crashing into the woods.
“Everything was on fire, and Schum came out of nowhere to save us,” says Bochter. “We're blessed to have lived through it.”
