aeromax 10 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Spectacular maneuvers in a Cessna: A couple is out with his light aircraft into turbulence and was forced to land. Suddenly the people saw in a residential area of town on Main floor something extraordinary. Only the shock was great, then the wonder of the arts of the pilot. In the middle of a residential area in Lower Franconia has made an emergency landing on Sunday a sport pilot his plane from Hesse. He and his wife who were co-pilot, while only slightly injured. The airplane not a single car scratched, touched a garden fence, not even shaved yet the apple trees in front yards. The two pilots were started in the morning Reichelsheim (EDFB) with the machine towards Aschaffenburg (EDFC). Then - as the first assessment of the police - the engine had a technical defect (engine failure). The pilot decided to make an emergency landing and turned the light aircraft in the middle of a residential area in town on Main floor. There he saw a deserted road. He used it as a runway. First he pulled off with one wing slightly and took a rooftop antenna with a satellite, then the Cessna landed hard on the ground and dragged several feet along the tar. Finally buckled in on itself and the aircraft came to a halt. At that time, a double chain of rescue was begun: The startled residents informed the police, at the same time called for a machine installed in the emergency channel radio for help. The pilot and his wife, both 47y.o., were only slightly injured in the crash and were hospitalized. At the time of the emergency landing were no residents on the street after the crash landing, but many onlookers flocked to the crash site. That the accident ended so lightly is truly "spectacular," said police spokesman Michael Zimmer: "The fact that the pilot in this situation was capable of on a normal wide residential street that is a corridor of six feet to land, really speaks for his flying skills. "The road was temporarily closed for further investigations. The airplane is scrap. Otherwise, only a lantern was broken. source: Sueddeutsche Zeitung The machine is scrap. But what the heck, the main thing is they are alive. http://www.bild.de/news/inland/notlandung/notlandung-in-tempo-30-zone-anwohner-feiern-wunder-von-stockstadt-19651112.bild.html Damn !

allardjd 1,853 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Interesting. US registration and flag on the vertical stabilizer. Not a bad job of saving the people at the expense of the airplane - a lot of pilots lose both attempting to avoid damaging the airplane. John Link to post Share on other sites

hurricanemk1c 195 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 The pictures look interesting - a C-172 in a street! Good job done there by the pilot! @John - it's quite common to see US reg'd GA in Europe - something to do with the US register being cheaper than any European one Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Is it a 172 or a 152? I really can't tell. Can't see the side windows. John Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Interestingly, the FAA website states that N6619F is a Cessna 150F (c/n 15063219), registered to Aircraft Guaranty Corp. Trustee in Texas Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 It could be a 150 - there's not much visible difference between a 150 and a 152. John Link to post Share on other sites
