Not sure what happened here but.......

When near operating big jet engines and props, extreme paranoia is required. One one loses their guard, a simple thing like the wind blowing your baseball cap off can result in you instinctively chasing after it. I say that because I read about it happening once. When in very close, remind yourself to never make a sudden move in surprise reaction to something unexpected.

Reads like she was warned several times to stay away from the spinning bits but for whatever reason chose not to listen. Tragic and entirely preventable.
