Sonoma County. CA. plane crash.

Bad news this morning on my Kron4 news.

Microlight heavy landing in a field, resulting in injuries to the 73-year-old Pilot.

Sonoma County (Wine County) a few miles north of San Francisco Highway 101.

Always a sad end to an otherwise enjoyable flight!

It's times like this when I reflect that my daily Motorcycling escapades are probably far less dangerous than aviation, against all the odds!

A bad day to be an aircraft pilot or passenger.
