wow

while I heard the words spoken about carb icing...the conditions looked so very dry I'm really wondering if it was carb icing...high humidity is usually a part of the component.

also...there seemed to be a very nice road that could have been the place to land the plane and it would have remained right side up.

I'm glad they are ok, but carb heat should have fixed things if it was used and was working properly IF IT WAS CARB ICE

but it might not have been carb ice

and no radio distress call? the talker was talking but not sending out a mayday.
