Emergency landing on Highway

Postby matthewdev » Tue Apr 13, 2010 7:37 pm

This has been in the news a fair bit down here in Tasmania. It's pretty amazing that the highway had no cars when this guy landed!

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
