The footage I saw on the local news last night showed no obvious damage
to the plane. Pretty impressive for a guy with 7 hours dual at 4am with a BAL of .15! OK, he landed on a taxiway, but my point was he could have wreaked havoc in a busy pattern at any other time of the day. To have a VFR guy show up unannounced without a squawk code and buzz into their busy pattern could have been fatal. When I instructed at HPN, pattern work meant we got sandwiched between airlines & bizjets.

ups.com... OK, he landed on a taxiway, but my point was he could have wreaked havoc in a busy pattern at any other time of the day. True, he could have made choices that were more dangerous than the ones he did make. (The ones he did make were still pretty bad, though.) --Gary
