Yes it was me....

Hello All,

Thanks for taking such an interest in my flying.

Not sure if the photos are real, but the lesson is the same everyone on the ground and in the air should keep a really good lookout from both.

For those interested, I have spoken with the CAA about the event.

For those who actully fly jets:

1. Yes we do and should practice flapless landings, an hydraulic failure in any aircraft is a manageable emergency.... ONLY if pilots are well trained and practiced. We are both

2. The canopy is cracked 'cos one of the individuals inside was not feeling too well and the aircraft will happily fly at landing speeds with the canopy open.

3. There is a sign on both ends of the road that says in red "Danger Low Flying Aircraft" or some such clear message.

Hope this helps...
