Mewp Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 The theory is vapour lock and this video appears to show the pilot trying the impossible turn to return to the runway. 2 POB both badly injured but alive. Piper Sport aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirdDog Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 WOW!!. But why do pilots forget to fly the plane. AMAZING they survived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Doesn't look very survivable.. They were lucky if they do survive OK. . The last thing you want it to do is lose control. As they say, fly the plane as far as you can into the accident.. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISA Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Pretty compelling that short clip, the urge to turn back would be very strong indeed especially if ahead is cluttered with buildings etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
