C195 Down near Port Pirie

Probably Australia's best C195 has unfortunately had a forced landing south of Port Pirie this afternoon.

Engine failure has resulted in a text book forced landing by the owner/pilot.

Both occupants unhurt.

The 195 however will need a new donk!

We don't have any 195s in NZ
Glad they got her down alright, but I bet getting that radial overhauled would make you cry.
