kgwilson Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 PA28. Looked pretty flat but some large trees around. Maybe he stalled a bit too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Ferguson Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Engine Failure straight after T/O, pilot did a good job to get it down. Apparently he was an RPL student doing solo circuits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Perry Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 In that case,. . Well Done that man. . . I gathered that it was a PA28 from the tail bit on the pic. . . Since he walked away from it, I can say Thanks that he didn't damage any Vines. . .( Must preserve Aussie Wines ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

APenNameAndThatA Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I suspect that the crash was caused by the pilot being distracted by the reporter's enormous yellow jacket. (Turbo will tell me to remove this post if the matter is going to court at the moment.) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
