Test flight (2)
Posted: Wed Feb 11, 2009 5:03 pm...the radio crackles: "..157, you're trailing smoke.."
Holy smoke, you can say that again!
I declare an emergency, and start looking for a field. Flaps down, canopy open, where do I go?
In the end, I manage a turn and just squeeze over the trees to land in the grass at Jandakot. I even get the gear down..
Now how am I going to explain this to my mechanic???
I have no idea what went wrong here, but it sure was exciting....
Accusim, what an invention...
