Travis Barker praises Qantas flight and says he has 'angels watching over' him after surviving fatal 2008 plane crash
The blink-182 drummer, 48, recently jetted Down Under with his wife Kourtney Kardashian and their family for his band's first tour in the country in a decade.
In September 2008, Travis boarded a private jet in South Carolina to head to Los Angeles following a show, while accompanied by his friend Adam 'DJ AM' Goldstein, his security guard Charles 'Che' Still, and his assistant Chris Baker. As the small plane was attempting to take off, one of the tires suffered a blow out, causing the craft to overshoot the runway, burst through the airport's fence and over the nearby highway, and finally crash into the embankment on the side of the road. The pilot, Sarah Lemmon, and the co-pilot, James Bland, were killed within minutes from smoke inhalation and burns as the plane erupted into flames on impact, according to the Chicago Tribune.
