Members ec437 Posted November 7, 2008 Members Share Posted November 7, 2008 i love the irony of that. learn to fly please tell me this was staged by the flight school I think it would have to be. L-1329, correct me if I'm wrong, but I would think that if a plane like that crashed into a tree like that at any speed that would keep it airborne, both plane and tree would be more or less completely demolished or at least substantially more damaged. But, I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All kidding aside, I think that's real. Approach speeds in those planes are really not much greater than highway driving, and that big old tree ain't going anywhere. Now the signs, those could've been staged... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carb ice, loss of power, attempted to land, thought he saw car lights and swerved into the tree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Detox Posted November 8, 2008 Members Share Posted November 8, 2008 Freakin' crosswinds! Where are you posting this from, hell? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PaulyWally Posted November 8, 2008 Members Share Posted November 8, 2008 All kidding aside, I think that's real. There's no way the plane could have intertwined itself in those branches. If it's real... then it must have happened a long time ago. Long enough for all those branches to grow back around the plane. Based on the looks of some of those branches, I would guess 4 years at least. I'm leaning toward Photoshop though. When I look closely at the details and all the shadowing, there's something that just doesn't look right. 'Course, I can't pinpoint it. It just feels like something isn't right.

Members ec437 Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 In my post I linked to the NTSB report. Yeah that database was really interesting! I poked through it and looked through some accidents that have occurred at the local airport in my town... not so sure I want to take flight lessons there anymore!

Members Renfield Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 This is my latest crash My back still feel it I was 5 when I was in mine. I am 34 now. I still feel it. Age is only making it WAY worse as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Crescent Seven Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 My latest crash was today, getting off a ski lift. She should have moved after she fell, but noooooooo...had to lay there and laugh about it. She stopped laughing when she saw 200lbs of helmeted love barreling down on top of her. Too bad she wasn't cute...C7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Renfield Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 A few weeks back at a work function, a guy from Burnaby made me try a drink he concocted... Jager and Chocolate Milk. Wasn't too bad as a tall shot or two. But as a sipping drink it it started tasting tooth pastey after a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Red Bull, no chocolate milk, no cranberry juice, just Jager. Luscious, luscious Jager. C7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luscious, luscious Jager. C7 Usually so do I, this was something different. I wouldn't make it again unless to shoe it off as a gimmick like he did. Jager and me are a bad pair. The last time we hung out together too long, nine months later I became a Dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dave Campbell Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 Ah yeah, the Red Bull combo. Had that. You know how it is when you're playing a gig, and people are digging it, and there are some who are REALLY digging it, and they feel compelled to buy the band a round of shooters?{censored} it, I always partake. That particular concoction... yeah that's probably what caused the next morning's crash. I think I crashed into the toilet bowl, and then my face crashed into the floor. Jager on its own, I agree - I like it. Like high octane couch syrup, but way better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brake Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 I wish the {censored} wasn't so expensive here, though. How much is booze up there? I think the last time I bought Jag it was like $16 for the 375ml bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zebra Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 I like jager, but drinking it straight gets a little gross. Kinda like drinking maple syrup or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
