A backcountry newb in a Mooney managed to land long and plow into a
pickup
truck at an Idaho backcountry strip. I saw the Mooney after the
crash and it was bent, but mostly intact. My real surprise came when
I flew into the strip and saw the truck :

Yikes! Somebody up there must have been watching out for this
pilot. He
and his passenger both lived.

It has to be the truck in the background!
No way an airplane is going to do that much damage unless it hit the truck
at very high speed and pretty much obliterated itself...
