Wheels UP in CB and BK

[Triple 7]

Greetings pilots,

Did anyone see the abc news in sydney at 1900 tonight saturday ?

Showing a Piper Chieftain having a wheels up arriving at canberra airport from newcastle on the rpt run with 6 pob.

And also a Piper twin comanche having a wheels up at ysbk this afternoon with 2 pob.

I hope the punters are all safe and unhurt.


Anymore info anyone.......

Presumably it was one of Brindabella's Chieftains at Canberra? :ouch: Usually no-one gets hurt in a wheels up as it's a controlled crash, but it would have been a tense time for all concerned until they were safely on the ground. :{

Let's wait for the ATSB report shall we?

ATSB Report? You've gotta be joking. That's another 15 months away for a simple wheels up.
