    Default Typical Monday !

    Out of Airspeed, Altitude and Ideas.....all at the same time!
    However, any landing you can walk away from is a good landing...

    Very lucky escape, amazing how the thing breaks in half.

    Ouch! That landing looked sore....

    I wonder why the fuselage broke like that - despite the landing. I'd have thought it would have had an inner protective 'tub', more like F1 cars have nowadays.

    Interesting to see that the lights on the wing-tips flew off though - just as if they'd been held on by elastic bands!

    It is made that way just like cars today. They have this break-up zone to spread the force all over the fusilage instead of hitting the person inside it

    But, Crister, he didn't look too comfy in that third pic!

    The 'crumple zone' seemed to be where he sat.....
