Three Year Old Girl Rescued from Plane Crash in B.C.
Canada.com, The Globe and Mail and Canoe.ca all have substantial stories of three year old Kate rescued from a Cessna 172 that went down near Golden British Columbia. A fortunate combination of forethought and luck joined forces to bring some good news from a tragic accident. A passing plane, listening to the emergency frequency, picked up the ELT signal. An ongoing search in the area placed SAR resources near at hand. Young Kate was strapped into a child car seat. Sadly, the two other occupants did not survive.

It can be a bit of a struggle to get an automobile car seat into a Cessna, but that's probably proof that it's worth it. Also the child's familiar seat helps to offset unfamiliarity of the vehicle, and they can see out the window a little.
