Just when you think the media cannot possibly do its job any more ineptly, up pops a bottom feeder like Ms Anna Roberts to prove that there really is no limit to the stupidity of 'journalists'. As for:Sussex Police guarded the scene but escorted The Argus to the crash site to look around.I bet the AAIB just loved that!

Never knew there was a diesel engine certified for a Cherokee, what kind is it? what's the HP. That certainly sounds like the way to go.


And well done to the pilot gettin it down safe.

Been around for quite a while now, I remember them being touted to flying schools as a retrofit answer to escalating AVGAS costs years ago.

Interesting to see if it had the same problem as G-BSPM which force landed near Dorking a year or so ago.
