Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: A plane parachuted to the ground Tuesday in Fayetteville after losing oil pressure. 
  
 A small plane piloted by the former president and CEO of Wal-Mart U.S. parachuted to the ground Tuesday morning near Fayetteville High School along Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, resulting in minor injuries. 
  
 Three people were on the plane, said Sgt. Craig Stout, a spokesman for the Fayetteville Police Department. It was unclear whether the plane struck the truck or vice versa. 
  
 Stout confirmed that the pilot was Bill Simon, 56, who was president and CEO of Wal-Mart U.S. from 2010 to 2014. 
  
 Simon told The Associated Press that he unfurled an aircraft parachute that brought the plane down, adding that he suffered a burn as his air bag deployed. 
  
 Four people were taken to Washington Regional Medical Center. Three of people were in the plane and one was in a vehicle that was involved, said Becky Stewart, chief of Central EMS. 
  
 “Given the proximity of the high school and the university and all the traffic, it could have been an absolute tragedy," Stout said. 
  
 Bill Simon, a former chief executive of Wal-Mart. 
  
 None of the injuries were serious, she said. 
  
 Stout identified those on the plane as Simon; Cliff Slincard, 59, the copilot; and Maurice Willis, 47, a passenger. 
  
 The driver of the truck was identified as Shakemia Harris, 30, of Fayetteville. 
  
 The plane was on its way from Bentonville to Waco, Texas, when it began losing oil pressure, Stout said. The pilot was going to attempt a landing at Drake Field in Fayetteville when the plane lost all oil pressure, Stout said. 
  
 The pilot deployed the airplane's parachute and drifted to the ground, Stout said. 
  
 Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard remained blocked in both directions from around Hill Avenue to Razorback Road just after 11 a.m. Authorities are awaiting direction from the FAA on whether to move the plane or leave it in place, Stout said. 
  
 The aircraft, a 2014 Cirrus SR-22 fixed-wing single-engine plane, is registered to WG Aviation LLC of Rogers, according to records. 
  
 A video posted on Twitter and later removed showed the plane parachuting to the ground. 
  
 Alan Wilbourn, a spokesman for the Fayetteville School District, said school was not affected by the crash. 
  
 Simon serves on the Baylor University Board of Regents and is an adjunct professor at the university's Hankamer School of Business. 
  
 "We understand from news reports that [Simon] and his passengers have minor injuries, and we are thankful that everyone is OK," Baylor University spokesman Lori Fogleman said in a statement, adding that university officials have not yet had the opportunity to speak with Simon since the parachute landing. ||||| This morning, in Arkansas, a plane piloted by a former CEO of Walmart came down beneath a parachute on a main road in Fayetteville, Arkansas. You can see the plane just before touchdown, underneath its orange-and-white parachute, in the screen shot above. Now, explanatory Q and A: 1) What happened here? William Simon, a former CEO of Walmart, took off this morning in a Cirrus SR-22 from an airport in Bentonville, Arkansas, Walmart’s headquarters city. The flight was headed southwest, toward Texas; not long after takeoff it developed engine troubles, and the pilot made a U-turn back to Drake Field in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Close to the ground, he decided he wasn’t going to make it all the way to the runway, and he pulled a parachute that allowed his plane and its passengers to descend safely onto a road. If you’d like to see local news footage, you can check here. For recordings of the pilot’s discussion with air traffic controllers, you can listen to the MP3 here. (Start at time 14:20, and listen to the call to “Razorback,” the local controllers, from the plane “Cirrus eight five seven sierra whiskey.”) If you’d like to see the FlightAware track, go here. 
  
 And if you’d like to see a schematic rendering of the entire flight, consult the illustration below. It’s from my friend Rick Beach, of the Cirrus Owners and Pilots Association, and it shows the plane’s elevation and path from takeoff in the upper part of the illustration to its landing in the lower right side. 2) What about this parachute? The built-in “ballistic parachute,” also known as the “parachute for the whole plane,” is a unique and distinctive feature of the Cirrus line of small aircraft. When the Cirrus SR-20 came onto the market 15 years ago, many grizzled aviators scoffed at it as a kind of training-wheels aircraft. Who would need a parachute? Real men would always be able to aviate themselves out of a bind! Despite the scoffing, I bought one of the first SR-20s off the assembly line in 2000—and I wasn’t the only one to find the parachute a plus. Cirrus SR-20s and SR-22s are now the best-selling line of small aircraft in the world, which is a story I told in my book Free Flight and an Atlantic article “Freedom of the Skies.” The company’s factory is still in Duluth, Minnesota—but is now owned by the Chinese government, a story I told in China Airborne. This is, as best I can reckon, the 55th of these Cirrus parachute saves since 2000 (of the 6000+ Cirri now flying), which have saved several times that many lives. ||||| Federal investigators are trying to determine what caused Tuesday's dramatic scene in the sky over Arkansas. 
  
 Former Walmart CEO Bill Simon was piloting a plane, heading from Bentonville, Arkansas to Waco, Texas, when he ran into engine trouble shortly after takeoff. The Cirrus SR22T began to lose altitude, prompting Simon to make a split-second decision that saved lives, but could have gone much worse, reports CBS News correspondent Kris Van Cleave. 
  
 "I'm going to need an all-crash here. We're going to try to find a place over here that's clear," Simon says in Air Traffic Control audio recordings. 
  
 Witnesses watched in amazement as the single-engine plane deployed a parachute, glided to the ground and landed on a stretch of road, the entire aircraft still visibly intact. 
  
 "When we looked up, there was a plane that was like free falling for a second and then popped a parachute," said one witness, So Rouhnavaz. 
  
 Seconds before touching down, the plane struck a pickup truck carrying a female driver and two children. That driver and all three people on board the plane, including Simon, walked away with just minor injuries. 
  
 "They were losing altitude ... so they popped the emergency chute on the plane, which brought them down slowly," said Craig Sout of the Fayetteville Police. 
  
 That emergency ballistic parachute is built into the plane's fuselage - a standard feature on the Cirrus aircraft since the 1990s. 
  
 "The idea of the Cirrus aircraft and the Klapmeier brothers who designed it was there should be another option -- that the penalty for bad judgment, for bad luck shouldn't be death," said James Fallows, national correspondent for The Atlantic, also a pilot who flies a Cirrus. 
  
 "It certainly is a future for smaller planes. I think people on your Boeings and Airbuses probably are not going to be needing these, and shouldn't because they are so safe," Fallows said. "But for the smaller planes, I think the evidence becomes clear -- why would a plane not have this kind of safety system?" 
  
 In January, a pilot landed his Cirrus in the middle of the Pacific Ocean after it ran out of fuel en route to Hawaii. 
  
 And in 2009, mechanical problems forced the pilot of another Cirrus to deploy his chute over a Washington, D.C. suburb. Both pilots survived. 
  
 Cirrus parachutes have been used more than 50 times. More than 30,000 parachutes have also been installed on a variety of other planes, credited with saving more than 200 lives. 
  
 The FAA and NTSB are investigating Tuesday's incident. |||||
Student:
A parachute helped save the life of a pilot in trouble, but not in the traditional manner. In this case, the parachute was attached to the plane, not a human, reports the Arkansas Democrat Gazette. The drama unfolded Tuesday morning after former Walmart CEO Bill Simon ran into trouble with his small plane, a Cirrus SR-22, soon after taking off from Bentonville, Ark. Simon tried to make it to a nearby air field, but realized he wasn't going to make it. "I'm going to need an all-crash here. We're going to try to find a place over here that's clear," Simon says in Air Traffic Control recordings, per CBS News. That's when he deployed the plane's parachute and descended onto a stretch of road. He clipped a pickup near the ground, but all three people on the plane and the three in the truck escaped with minor injuries. "They were losing altitude ... so they popped the emergency chute on the plane, which brought them down slowly," says Craig Sout of the Fayetteville Police. A parachute on a plane? As it turns out, they're standard on Cirrus aircraft, explains James Fallows at the Atlantic, who bought one himself. Veteran pilots scoffed at the "training wheels" when the chutes first came out 15 years ago, but the simple fact is that they save lives, he writes. "Small-aircraft flight is perilous," he adds. "And the parachutes make it less so."
