Hi All,
this time the crash is not mine.
This morning I was working in my driveway when a neighbour put her head
over the fence and said =ACOh, its not you then". She explained that she
had been told that there had been a plane crash about a mile away last
night and had assumed it was me. Why she should think that I have no
idea.
There are 3 landing strips within a couple of miles so I drove to the
crash to check to see if it was local plane. .The police woudn`t let me
poke around but it was obviously a Piper of some sort, probably an
Archer, but identification was difficult as all that could be seen was
about a foot of fin and about 6 inches of cabin top sticking up above
the water in a small fishing hole.
The story, as far as I can ascertain is that the guy lost his engine,
tried to get down in a field and messed it up spectacularly. He arrived
at the far hedge still going well, ploughed through it, removing his
wings in the process. Ran down a bank and ended in the middle of the
pond. Local fishermen tell me that it is only about four feet deep so he
either had his wheels retracted or he wiped them off going through the
hedge as the water nearly covered the cabin top The plane must have been
pretty low and he picked his field in a hurry as there are several big
fields within a few hundred yards of the one he chose.
The pilot was not injured but the best bit was that the first person to
arrive at the scene reported that the pilot was sitting on the cabin
top, with his feet in the water wearing a tee shirt with a slogan
written on it.
The slogan was ` Trust me. I`m a pilot`
Still laughing
Pat.

Mike,
Most of us dial 911 for emergency assistance. It just looked like he was about
to need a little medical attention. Sorry about the unclear joke. Back to your
regularly scheduled Kolb chat...
