Plane down in Bristol Channel

Express & Echo (local paper) has details. Thankfully the pilot was unhurt.

"The plane crashed about 400 years south of Mumbles Point and could possibly be recovered at low tide."

How far is that?

Well done Mr Glinternick for escaping without injury and being picked up so quickly.

I see he was rescued by the Kia-Ora.

Were the crew dressed as usherettes? "Would you like an ice-cream or soft drink while we rescue you sir"

(Cinema goers under 30 years of age - forget it, you won't understand!)

Seriously though, well done, Mike. Glad to see you made it OK.
