  "summary": "Nathalia Gadelha Filgueiras, a 20-year-old co-pilot, died on November 1 alongside eight other people when a Learjet crashed into a South Florida roadway. Her father, Alan Filgueiras, a pilot who helped teach her to fly, expressed pride in her actions during the incident.\n\nAccording to PBS NewsHour, Filgueiras's father listened to her final radio transmissions to air traffic control while searching for clues regarding why the plane plunged. During the communications, Filgueiras was heard calmly reporting ice buildup while the aircraft flew through a thunderstorm and experienced turbulence of up to 700 feet. PBS NewsHour reports that she declared an emergency, stating the aircraft was in an overspeed condition while descending at 20,000 feet per minute.\n\nCBS News confirmed the crash occurred on November 1 and involved eight other fatalities.",
