what poor luck

Postby FsNovice » Sun Apr 08, 2007 3:27 pm

A pilot, who was apparently on his maiden flight in a newly built aircraft crashed in a field full of Rapeseed near ashford, Kent. Came out unscathed. Pilot walked out the plane and told bystanders the cause was engine failure!!!

Really bad luck.  What a disappointment.  Hopefully insurance wll take care of it, and hell get another.
