Down the local last night and learnt one of our village's surrounding fields has a new addition:

Plane crash lands in field near Tackley (From Oxford Mail) (http://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/NEWS/10765978.Plane_crash_lands_in_field_near_Tackley/)

Recall hearing the sirens on Thursday evening... May don the wellies and take the kids near to the site tomorrow. Rumors point to a rather impressive after dark landing with little/no damage.

PFL?
Sounds more like a real forced landing.
Well done!

No plummeting? No schools & hospitals avoided by hero pilot? What's journalism coming to these days?

Sounds like a good result though.
