She said the accident took place after midnight and before 1 a.m. on Tuesday. “The student was taken to the hospital and released from the Hanna hospital …” said Super. Super T Aviation operates a flight school in Medicine Hat. Super has been out of town and was still making her way back to the Hat on Tuesday when she talked to the News by telephone. She said details of the circumstances regarding the crash are not available yet. “We haven’t been able to talk to him (the pilot) yet.
