Jaba-who Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Could be my mates aircraft. He has a glass air 111. A couple of months age he took off from atherton. Landed at his personal strip on a farm field down on the coast - about 10 minutes flying away. Had a heavy landing and damaged both main wheels and struts. Skidded off the side of the strip into the sugar cane. That's about the only thing I know of that's happened even vaguely related to atherton for ages.

jakej Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Sounds expensive, at least I figure he didn't get hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
