It's a case of, Oh sh*t!  It quit!  COOL! Restart!  AHHH!, quit again!  Woot!  Restarted!  AHHHHHHH!!!  Hey there's a boulevard......and into a parking lot too!

What kind of plane is that? Great job at landing it, good thing there were no cars!  :o

Ain't this about the time of year that the New Yorkers head home with a Canadian under each arm?  Hence the lite traffic.

Sorry!

Good thing there wasn't much traffic, or worse powerlines across that stretch of road.  Good job to keep flying and get it down.  Too many guys have panicked in that situation and tried to stretch the glide to reach a runway or open field...and not made it.

That's was great flying and some tough decision making.
