Experienced female UPS pilot, 30, is killed instantly as her plane crashes into potato processing plant with a large chimney 'blocking' a nearby rural airport runway: Her family now wants the 'dangerous' strip she was landing at closed

An experienced female pilot was killed instantly after her plane crashed into a potato processing plant with a large chimney next to a rural airport in Idaho.

Brittney Infanger, 30, was flying UPS packages from Salt Lake City, Utah, to Burley, Idaho, when the tragedy took place last week.

Around 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday, 90 minutes into her flight, Brittney's single-engine 208B plane crashed into the Gem State Processing Plant in Heyburn, Idaho.

Brittney, described as a 'well-respected pilot beyond her years,' had more than 11 years of flying experience around Utah and Idaho.

Her distraught father, Jim Bob Infanger, has said Brittney knew the area well and flew to Burley International Airport all the time. He blamed a hazardous chimney on the Gem State Processing Plant for the deadly crash - and called for authorities to close the nearby landing strip.

'There's a 60-foot chimney sticking out of the of the food processing plant - no lights on it, dead center - straight across the runway. So whenever you come in, you have to fly over the top of this and drop down,' Jim Bob told local news outlet
