"The propeller went in reverse, and he realized he couldn't stop the plane
before it went beyond the boundaries of the airport," Hauser said.

Propeller went in reverse?? Maybe he used a car engine with 4-on-the-floor
and shifted wrong... [kidding of course]

Subject: Kitfox mishap in Colorado
Nobody seems to have mentioned the Kitfox that crash-landed in
Boulder, Colorado. I got the alert from Google a couple of days ago.
They said it was an engine problem that caused the pilot to put it
down...he wasn't hurt. Anybody near there know what kind of engine
problem, and what kind of engine?
