Forced landing on motorway in Southern France
A light aircraft made a forced landing on the A8 motorway in the Var, France this morning after having taken off from Aérodrome Cuers Pierrefeu. The instructor and two students on board walked away uninjured.
The reg is not visible but it may be Robin DR400-120 F-GLDP ? New footage confirms the reg.
I hope he paid his road toll!
