An Illinois mom on board an American Airlines plane sent a harrowing message to her kids fearing for her life as the cabin “smelled like fire” – before she was forced to “jump from the wing” following an emergency landing. Tessa Springer was on board Saturday’s early morning flight out of St. Louis, Missouri, with her husband, Mark Springer, for a work trip – but the journey was mired in problems before the plane even left the ground.
