A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue November 27, 2007:I was there to see this... although certainly not funny for the guys in the plane it was an almost comic moment to watch - bit of a bumpy grass landing but the plane had almost come to a standstill when the nosewheel caught in a rut and it just flipped. Bit like a cyclist hetting the kerb and going over the handlebars ! | |

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed June 27, 2007:Well captured moment. I was there and it was not a pleasant thing to witness. Hope the two onboard are ok. It must have been an awful few seconds, as the aircraft paused very briefly while vertical before completing the tumble. There was a very fast and effective response from the nearby pilots - a credit to the aviation community. | |

To catch the event in the process ... the map flying around, clearly visible in the canopy, along with the guys trying to brace themselves ... and the propeller tearing itself to pieces while it chews the turf. An absolutely incredible photo. Here's hoping the folks involved were no more than just a little shaken ... | |
