Photo I saw on the web news, the airplane was in the water.

There have been two times I've had to deal with loss of power.

One was climbing out in Florida (mentioned before).

The other, I had 2000 feet of runway ahead of me.
Basically a quick (correct) decision and a non-event.

Like the man said, we weren't there.

I've been on the beach at Hilton Head, it may have changed but, it was
wide enough to put down a plane no matter where the jogger was on the
beach. I'd guess the pilot didn't see him or didn't have enough time
to avoid him. The plane ended up in the water so I'd guess he couldn't
see much of anything.
