Peanut BUTTER landing Ha Ha !

Heard on a certain radio program this week :
"& the aircraft carried out a succesful forced landing
on a peanut butter field "

Must be something new to land on ?

Ha Ha ! Smooth or crunchie peanut butter !

Its not "black belt", its BLACK CAT!
Wonder where you can buy those plants. Technological breakthrough, straight from the seed to the jar. Now we just need to find the plants that grow directly into toast........hmmm did I hear breakfast?

Ja,nee mense, it made page 2 of the "Brits Pos"
Experimental type, 2 seater, according to the media report, the pilot had problems controlling the plane, and put it down on a large field of peanuts ( read sandwich!!!) just north of Brits.
It was just before the hectic weather we had at HBV last sunday, so it was just as well for the pilot!!
Hate to be cleaning that undercarridge!!

Apparently the pilot went off to notify the authorities and came back to find his aircraft had been broken into. The joys of African Aviation...

Haha thats so typical, did they take his tires and leave the plane on bricks too, or did they just steal the radio and the coins in the ashtray?

guys,just to let you know,i believe it was a 4-seater,because i was transiting joburg info-north's airspace,and heard an acft circling the site mentioning to info that there were three survivors and the aerrie was not too badly damaged.

hope they washed the peanut butter down with a cold one or two!
