NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Country star Reba McEntire said she will continue to fly to concerts despite an emergency landing aboard her private plane Friday and a jet crash that killed seven members of her band last year. "Our confidence in flying has not been shaken and we continue to believe beyond a shadow of doubt that it's the safest means of travel," said Narvel Blackstock, her husband and manager. Mr. Blackstock, Miss McEntire, her wardrobe designer and two crew members were on her 12-seat, twin-engine jet Friday night when it skidded down a runway at Nashville International Airport after the pilot was unable to lower the nosegear. There were no injuries. Miss McEntire, 37, switched planes and flew to Madison, Wis., where she performed later that night. She flew yesterday from Madison to Detroit for another appearance and planned to fly today to a concert in East Lansing, Mich. This article is copyright 1992 The Washington Times.
