I saw it on the news last night, he did well to stop it taking off, it was a bit of a bumpy landing on the grass, he soon got it back on the runway

Yeh funny thing is I just noticed this took place in May of this year :shrug:
 
Posibly the CAA report has just come out so it came to the attention of the news people?
I suppose the pilots gut instinct was to get it down asap but imagine if he had decided to circle round n bring it in. Probably have been a much bigger inquiry about it then. Be a bloody sight more dangerous too! :rules:

Awful,awful newspaper.:bang:

Also I recognise the photos used, Just hope they have credited the tog. :nono:

Daily Mail/Snail both leave you witha horrible slimey feeling after handling them.
