TMann Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Another aircraft crashed into another house out of what appears to be the same airport Thursday, 8/28. This time a twin engine piper. http://www.kvbc.com/Global/story.asp?S=8917457 Quote T Mann - Loooong-EZ/20B Infinity R/G Chpts 18 Velocity/RG N951TM Mann's Airplane Factory We add rocket's to everything! 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. 9, 10, 14, 19, 20 Done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bferrell Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 does seem strange that an experienced pilot would not aim for a street instead of a house.Mack was trying to avoid the houses, declared so on the radio, we're not sure why he hit the house, but I'm confident he was doing what he could given the situation.

ZUCZZ Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 OK, I can't throw light on the issue of why he hit the house, but around here (Johannesburg SA) we have a Velocity owner with a TIO-360. The interesting bit during his taxi testing was that he managed to cook and damage the aileron controls to the point of near failure ... only because of the constant checking was this noticed. It is now seriously protected, but when is enough sufficient? just another point to think about. Quote I live in my own little world! but its OK, they know me here!
