It was at my local airport. I was about to get checked out in this Tencam in order to teach sport pilots. Oh well...

is back in the fleet? did you get checked out?
Wierd how the pilot did not seem to make any evasive action.

 

[Capt. Geoffrey Thorpe]

Someone forgot to tell the pilot that there is no runway 18?

That saying, "Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing", isn't true.

Not good for the insurance company anyway.

Everyone ok?

No and no I think airplane is totalled

Yes...

what about the helicopter it hit?

I don't know much about helicopters. Perhaps it could be restored.

 

[write-stuff]

Dang!

Well he DID manage to hit the most expensive thing on the ramp to fix...the helicopter.

 

[Sac Arrow]

I beg to differ. If the Robinson hadn't been there, the jet would have been hit.

 

[Inverted]

Ummm.... How did that happen lol...

The jet would have repelled its ugliness

The jet has mass and substantial structure on its side. The helo is fragile and a tail boom strike ain't cheap.

Yeah but that's a $250,000 helicopter. Whack the side of that jet and surely the damage will be more than that.

What caused the pilot to lose control.

 

[sdflyer]

What caused the pilot to lose control.

My guess is it was a shock.

 

[numl0ck]

What caused the pilot to lose control.

The earth slapped him out of the sky.

 

[Threefingeredjack]

What caused the pilot to lose control.

No flight plan filed.

Loose nut behind the wheel.

Geez, I got my PPL at that airport. Interesting to see how it just maintained solid forward velocity all the way through the run in, especially considering the Tecnam wouldnt need much to get airborne...I wonder if there are pictures floating around.

It sucks when my Matchbox and Hot Wheels toys start to argue with each other.

 

[Sac Arrow]

It's bad enough when my office accessories start arguing with each other.

That's what they are doing? I thought they were plotting your demise.

 

[Meanee]

That'll buff right out.

I swear to god they are out to get me. I got attacked by a stapler just yesterday.

That's what networking is all about. Organizing computers into a committee. To cripple their productivity.

Isn't that what kicked off John Connor's career?
