YMMB incident today?
Collided with a 4’ shrub.
This, children, is why you need to read ALL NOTAMs.

Yes. Why hasn't the tail tie-down rope got a witches hat around it?
I see the issue straight away....
The pilot (or whoever is walking around outside of the aircraft) is not wearing high-vis!

Funny that whatever they are wearing stands out more than day-glo yellow. Someday we'll probably find out the dye in hi-vs causes cancer, who to sue, the vest maker or the idiots who mandate it everywhere its not really needed.
Then there's the idiots that erect poles with cameras on them in the middle of a taxiway complex and probably complain when a trainer clips one with a wing, and they still would have no footage of it as its below the cameras.
Looks more like a maintenance error, they moved the nose wheel to the tail and the pilot didn't notice.
PS if I sit in front of those yellow cones, box or taxiway lines in my yellow vest, am I still hi-vis?

Better check his ASIC is current also.. but I reckon it's more likely to be a W&B issue - looks to me like the aircraft was nose heavy.

Yeah, but don't forget the idiots that erect warehouses around the perimeter specially located to ensure maximum turbulence so they can probably complain when a trainer clips the roof of one on final.. they'd have no footage of that either!
I watched the first Warehouse alongside 13/31 erected. There was definitely a few close-ish approaches on 22 that could have clipped it. As well as the Eagles early right turns off 35R/31R that tried to high five workers on the roof, tower guys might remember what I mean.
I would assume that in order for a pilot to be accused of not wearing their safety cloak, said pilot would first need to be seen by the accuser. Reminds me a bit of the time I was scheduled to fly, during the day, an aeroplane painted in all over red and the student asked me with some concern if it was a problem that the rotating beacon wasn't working.

A bit like the ******** safety officer who drove about a k and a half to rip it up a pilot loading his aircraft who wasn't wearing the vest. Old mate listened to the safety 'lecture' for about 2 minutes before asking the safety officer how he saw him from so far away with no vest on. ******** drove off in a huff.
Apparently, during some low-level aeros the solo student pilot didn't quite have enough altitude to pull out of a loop.. but he ended up right on centerline for 17L so at least he got some marks for effort.
I hear from a friend (who is now upset that his training has been put on hold) that it was a C152 Aerobat.
