What a great piece of objective reporting, recognising the skill of the pilot and keeping to the facts.

Obviously not a UK news report, it's missing phrases like:
- aircraft PLUNGES into ground near petrol station, a MIRACLE there was no explosion
- innocent bystanders were seconds from DEATH
- passengers screamed in TERROR as the pilot had to fight the controls after the engine BLEW UP
- the aircraft SMASHED through a telegraph pole and missed traffic by INCHES
- following this near DISASTER there are now calls for all flying over roads to be BANNED
