Here’s a gear up
It states the mechanic was running up the engine and a whirlwind gust caught the plane and turned it over
I am.. up until this past weekend though I hadn't flown one of their planes since Jan of '18That’s how I found out, the latest issue of the Rotating Beacon. I get them even though my membership is suspended. If you find out can you let me know? Are you still in Plus One?
Hilarious!
“ It was reported that the aircraft had a 5 kt tailwind and was just powering up (about ½ throttle) when a whirlwind gust caught under the tail.”
Gotta add whirlwind detection to pre-flight checklist
