The pilot who lost consciousness during a flight from the Bahamas to Florida last week, resulting in a passenger having to land the airplane, has been identified as Kenneth Allen, a 64-year-old grandfather of six. And hospital officials say he is lucky to be alive.
“The story is miracle after miracle,” said Dr. Nishant Patel, the cardiothoracic surgeon who treated Allen at Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center on May 10.
