Appears to be 'Waay' off any centreline if 'landing'..??
Which direction I wonder?

Glad they're both OK.

Another 'Jab' ?

I have to ask, HTF it ended up in the side of that hanger without doing any noticeable damage to the other buildings on its way in, unless it went into that small area airborne and smacked straight into the hanger wall? If it was the later you would have though much more damage to plane and occupants. There only seems to be a cars width between that water tank and the other buildings so it must not have come in via some sort of ground route. Then one has to think how the hell it managed to land so wrong as to bomb in on the side of a hanger.

The L aileron is missing.

Did it get scraped off on the top of the circular water tank in the second picture?

Dr on scene.

I bet the first responders loved hearing that. 🤪

All the the best to those involved.

You gotta love accidents like this. No one killed but lots of damage and now the source of hours of schadenfreude inspired pleasure for all of us.

Indeed, the question of day as 43inches put it is - HTF did the pilot manage this feat of precision flying?

Can’t be replicated.

Seriously looks like a novelty bar/restaurant with an aircraft half hanging out of the wall/roof

My question would be in regards to the training standard these days. Keeping an aeroplane under control is not that difficult.
Then again, watching what some people do in cars makes you wonder. Some have no natural ability in operating machinery​​​​​​!

My impression. Looking at a map it seems the aircraft impacted the southern side of a hangar immediately abeam the threshold of 19 ie the aircraft is lodged in the hangar on a heading of about 300° or so. Loss of control landing 19 or .........
