A woman got her arm cut off by a propeller on a plane that her husband was preparing to fly

The woman and her husband were getting ready to taxi to the runway, but when the plane wouldn't move, they got out to see what was wrong.

According to the Miami Herald, Rebecca Lynn Gray, 45, and her husband Walter Gray, 46, were getting ready to fly out of Key West, Florida, in a rented Cessna 172S single-engine propeller plane, with Walter Gray piloting. He got out of the plane while the engine was still running to see if the plane's wheels were still in their chocks — wedges of wood or other hard material that keep the wheels from rolling inadvertently.
