Well trained Pilot with over 1000hrs... par for the course

Far too many puns BV. 13 can be lucky for some.

 

Great to see that there was actually a positive spin on the report. Congrats to the pilot and am thankful no one was hurt.

It's a great result. Pity they said the course is too waterlogged to takeoff from - that would be a sight! And for once a light plane incident with the aircraft reported as a "Cessna" is actually a Cessna!

 

 

[Guest SAJabiruflyer]

Well if it's VH-FMA then it's meant to be a Victa Airtourer 115!!!

 

 

[Guest SAJabiruflyer]

and now my wife reckons its FML which is meant to be a Piper. I give up. It's a plane.
