"Harrison was flying a WW2 vintage plane today which had engine trouble upon take off. He had no other choice but to make an emergency landing, which he did safely,'' Ford's publicist, Ina Treciokas revealed, according to USA Today. "He was banged up and is in the hospital receiving medical care. The injuries sustained are not life threatening, and he is expected to make a full recovery."
According to a new report from the Los Angeles Times (via IGN), risk management consultants and underwriters are positive that film executives will either limit or forbid form from flying his personal plane again.
"It will be stipulated in bold, black ink that he won't be able to fly while he's on the set," Los Angeles-based risk management consultant Angela Plasschaert said. "There wouldn't be a sane person on the planet that would want to write that policy."
Plasschaert has experience working in the film industry and is sure that some insurance precautions will be taken soon in regards to Ford's flying.
Randle Frankel of L.A. insurance company Frankel & Associates agreed with Plasschaert, adding, "If I was the underwriter, I would definitely look at the whole situation before deciding whether or not I was going to entertain the risk."
