And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Student Pilot Loses Engine | Cockpit View + ATC | by Brian Parsley
This happened up the street. I have taken lessons out of Concord; nice municipal airport.
ReplyDeleteFellow was cool as a cucumber.
Textbook!!
ReplyDeleteI'd say the student passed the test.
ReplyDeleteThe student ran the plane out of fuel. Unfortunately, it remains a very common cause of off airport landings. I'm not so sure he passed....
DeleteCan it be done better? I wonder how many hours the fellow had, and if he is going back up.
ReplyDeleteAlmost looked like he meant to do that. Good bit of luck involved as well. A ground hog hole could have ruined his whole day.
ReplyDeleteGiven the terrain looks like a very good landing. Lot of trees and houses to miss. Guy did keep calm which enforces the old rule, Fly the plane.
ReplyDeleteExcellent job...do laundry later.
ReplyDeleteExcellent job.
ReplyDeleteKudos to him and his instructor. Him for staying calm and his instructors for teaching him the right way.
