Aircraft hits building causing domino effect.

Originally posted on gliderpilot.net (edited)

Brace yourself before looking at the image.

A pilot at low level has no control over his aircraft.

It narrowly misses a crowd gathered for the airshow and slams into four
buildings, causing a disasterous domino effect..

Imagine the plight of the people in the buildings.

Let this be a warning to all pilots to choose their landing zones very
carefully.

I am sure this will invite sympathetic comments and constructive debate.

That pilot is a basket case for sure! Full of hot air, typical pilot!

He needed to dump some of his load to avoid problems heading downwind. He's clearly at max gross. Hope he's prepared for a water landing. etc. etc.
