Akromaster Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Looks like a Tecnam RG so probably not "two passengers on board". Hope they're ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rankamateur Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 "two passengers on board". This has been reported before with other incidents in RAA and very rarely has it been the case, but I believe these reports start off as an ambulance report on two patients taken from the scene and the journalist turns them into two "passengers". With the advent of driverless Uber cars it will probably get even more common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboplanner Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Or it comes from W&B terminology, 1 PAX, 2 PAX, 4PX etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Come on, this is the press we're talking about. They can't tell the difference between a Cessna and a hole in the ground. How do you expect them to know that 2POB means pilot and passenger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alf jessup Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Looks nasty, glad to see the crew made it out in reasonable shape and hope they recover quickly, hope the plane is insured as it can be replaced. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
