Emergency landing today Troutdale, OR
"BT" wrote in message
...
looks like an RV (Van's Aircraft)
any reports why the engine quit?
None yet. On the news all he said was that it had been sputtering and he
thought he had a better chance of making Troutdale (better emergency
facilities too) then turning back, and that it sputtered out again and died
on approach.
I know the neighborhood, though; one of those new ones with few straight
roads but fortunately the street was pretty wide. Nobody hurt and nothing
but the airplane and a small tree damaged.
