Nooooooooooo!

This was the aircraft i first flew when i got to OFT, and the one i first soloed in. It holds a very special place in my heart.
While i was there, the EFATO proceadures were drilled into my head, but that was because i had an excellent instructor.

A very very sad day for me.
I considered that plane to be my plane when i was flying over there. It will be sadly missed.

Glad to hear the guy is ok though.

At 200ft, you are pretty much right over the main road into Kissimmee, and to be honest there are not too many places to land. THere is a Wallmart on the left and loads of apartments and restaurants all around. Im sure it was a tough call.

Regards

Alex
