Default Nice GA piece done by our local TV station

Yeah, took a peek at the Mercury News this morning and
everything was correct, including listing the correct
plane type.


Except (and I doubt I'm going out on a limb here) for the
"landed upside down" part. Flipped over after landing, ok.
Landing upside down? Hmmm, I doubt it. Sounds like the
typical reporter not quite knowing what they're talking about.

Glad to hear that pilot and passenger walked away. Too bad for
the plane.


The funny part is that the Mercury News used to have a pilot who was based
at RHV as the main writer for GA articles, and his wife is active in RHV
events. He was an asset for us since he would ignore/minimize in the
published articles any community opposition to RHV, and he would make things
up about RHV support. He will be missed.
