About a month ago a friend and I watched an expirimental aircraft crash at
Plant City in Florida. It was a two seater ultralight, with a registered N number. We even helped pick up the pieces so to speak. The gentleman piloting came in for a landing and I could instantly tell he was having problems. It appeared that he stalled the craft, it fell out about 10 feet from the sky, bounced up hard, then he did a go around. The second time around it was worse. He stalled it at a higher altitude and he crashed hard. Bent the back wheels and frame in two, and the plane was out of commission after that. Haven't seen any news reports or other info on it. He wasn't hurt, but was extremley lucky as a landing like he had could have easily broke his back. Anyone see anything on it by chance? |
