Steven Everett told KTVB\u00a0he was watching an air show from a nearby field when he saw the crash happen and immediately ran toward the scene to help.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

“They hit pretty hard,” Everett said. “They were pretty low altitude.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Everett said he rushed to the area where the crew members landed. Despite the severity of the crash, he said all four were conscious and moving around when help arrived.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

“Everybody was honestly pretty good,” he said. “We got to them when they landed. They were up and moving around. We made sure everything was OK.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

He said one crew member suffered cuts to the face from the impact of glasses during the ejection, while another appeared to suffer a concussion.<\/p>\n

“We stabilized them until the rest of the medics showed up,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Everett said what stood out most was how the crew members reacted in the aftermath of the crash.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

“The captain that came down, he was only concerned about if anyone else got hurt,” Everett said. “That\u2019s all they cared about. They\u2019re the best.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

After realizing all four crew members were ok, Everett described an emotional moment shared between the aircrew.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

“That was the biggest hug I ever had,” she said. “I hugged all four of them. I was happy to see them up. I was glad to see them be good.”<\/p>\n
