@PaulK. Sterling MA, last Thurs. Pilots first flight in a PIK20(flaps only.) I didn't see it but was there before and after, lots of sporty stuff seems to happen when I'm at lunch. From an eyewitness, to me, to the internet... on landing pilot ran out of runway, pulled up at the treeline banked and landed in the trees. No injuries.
Why is he hiding his face?
ReplyDeleteWho and where is this?
ReplyDeleteYeah, how about some background here. It would be nice to know what happened.

ReplyDeleteLanding in trees is for the birds!

ReplyDeleteMoe: I thought I told you to go up the ladder.
Larry: I did it last time! It was Curly's turn!
Moe: Hey, Curly, where's your helmet?
Curly: I gave it to Larry.
Larry (sheepishly): Yeah, I left mine at home. Say, isn't that the same tree as last time?
Moe: Yeah, I think so. This is getting boring. Why don't these gliders ever burn?
