Default Re: Aircraft pics

Extremely lucky there was no fire as this type of crash normally always ends with that as a result. Since he had to be removed from the plane that likely would have meant a fatality. Evidently he suffered engine trouble immediately after take off and was attempting to circle around and land. Private video shows his plane descending rapidly and under limited power. I witnessed a similar crash while at my daughters soccer game when a Cessna 172 lost power. It's glide slope was just a little better than a rock. Fortunately both father and daughter survived.
