They were turned around looking out the back window of the moving car.

That's exactly why I turned a perfectly good 172 into beer can recyclable
material. In the last two seconds of flight, I saw three kids staring at me
out of the back windshield of a Honda station wagon going, at most 30 mph up
the freeway hill. Two choices...stay in the center lane of the freeway and
possibly kill the kids or slip over into the left lane and take the wing off
on the bridge abutment. Not much choice, is there?
It is amazing how fast an airplane turns over on its back when a wing is
gone. And I could, almost twenty years later, draw those kids' faces from
memory.
