Well we had a little mishap here in sunny Florida today.
Seems a student pilot on his first solo flight was on final to runway 25 at KORL when he was apparently spotted flying the final a little too low. Some witnesses say that he was warned over the radio that he was too low by either another pilot or the tower. The student pilot responded to the warning by pulling up and not applying power, in effect stalling the airplane over the lake at the approach end of runway 25. The airplane stalled and fell into the Lake Barton where the pilot was then rescued by a passing boater. The airplane is apparently owned by the local CAP chapter. David (KORL) |
