eightyknots Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 It looks like a Skyranger-ski to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xair1159 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 "It looks like a Skyranger-ski to me." Nah, deffnitly an Xair H (or Hawk / Hanuman depending which bit of the world you are in) Got one just like it. If it is the Jab 2200 version could that have anything to do with the choice of landing site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is the Jab 2200 version could that have anything to do with the choice of landing site? I'm sure you're correct, 1159. I first thought it was a Skyranger but upon closer inspection -using the HD option on Youtube- I completely agree with you. Two things surprise me (apart from the fact that someone was actually filming this incident). They are: 1. How fast the plane appears out of nowhere. 2. How the dark Alfa-like car continues to drive near the middle of the road (rather than pulling off to the side as the film-operator's car does) and doesn't apear to have seen the plane at all.

If people fail to see an Ambulance (or Police car) coming up behind them with full lights & sirens, what hope have they got of seeing an aircraft falling out of the sky?
