A 37-year-old Kansas woman was killed after she backed into a plane's 
spinning propeller while trying to take photos, officials said.

Amanda Gallagher, a photographer, was on the plane to snap photos of 
skydivers on Saturday afternoon, and she rode the plane back down after 
the skydivers jumped, according to Air Capital Drop Zone, where the 
incident took place.

The plane landed at the site in Derby, outside of Wichita, and the next 
set of jumpers went to board, Air Capital Drop Zone said.

The Cessna 182 was grounded but still running, according to the Sedgwick 
County Sheriff's Office and the Federal Aviation Administration.

"For unknown reasons ... she moved in front of the wing, a violation of 
basic safety procedures," Air Capital Drop Zone said in a statement. "With 
her camera up to shoot photos as she did so, she stepped back slightly 
moving toward and into the spinning propeller."

Gallagher, of Wichita, was taken to a hospital where she died from her 
injuries, authorities said.

The FAA and National Transportation Safety Board are investigating.
