When PFLs go wrong
 
Woner how come he ended up there, did the PFL go short or wasn't there anywhere else to try ? Personally I'd rather go for a motorway than a lake.

PFL into lake

Full details of this are on Flyer forum. It wasn't a Practised forced landing and the pilot didn't want to be there either...

He landed in a field which proved to be too short, went through the hedge/treeline, and was surprised to be confronted by a number of ducks. I believe the ducks were equally surprised, if not more so.

We've discussed this to death in the past. It's about evaluating the risk, putting down in a lake, or putting down on a motorway. I'd take the motorway everytime ESPECIALLY if it were at night (for the anal retentives here that is with the massive disclaimer of traffic jams, heavy traffic etc etc)

Just listened to it with audio and found that out. Ouch.
