"Pedestrian" generally implies some random person out walking around, but:

Yeah that's a little odd of a wording. The plane didn't just "hit someone" it also had an engine catch fire, which strongly, strongly implies that this person was sucked through the engine.
You would kind of have to try to run out onto the runway and leap into a running jet engine, so it seems reasonably fair to me to call this a suicide.
