:)I believe that this accident happened about two years ago, and believe no one passenger has died....just a cow! ::).....I am not sure of what it happened, but a friend told me that was dry breakdown! ??? Can You believe in this :P...it simply finished the fuel..... :-/the pilot was a hero! ;D
Those pictures was from the internet at the time of that accident...so Im not in those photos...and I dont know no one in those images.
Im serious about the cow.....at least is what the rumors said about....
Cheers!

not knowing the full details, but i would hardly call the pilot a hero, had he been paying attention this wouldnt have even happend, but again thats going on the assumption that everything was normal. some interesting pictures

As wheel up landings go in a field, that is pretty good. Craig it could well have been a defective gauge, I don't think too many pilots are that silly ;D Mind you I've had a few dead sticks in FS from spending way to much time hooning around :-[ :-[ :-[

Mark ;)

Ps. The cow would only have gotten turned into Big Macs, so not a significant thing ;D

I know, just a thought ;)
But like you said and I had to agree, could have been a daft pilot ;D ;D ;D
Still no-one has topped the two Spanish pilots with the private jet pulling onto the A40 though ;D ;D ;D
