Tirak 4 Posted April 22, 2015 Comments say that one bailed out and parachuted to the ground and the other managed to land his aircraft safely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyviper 1,101 Posted April 22, 2015 Oh! I remember seeing this and yes the pilots and everyone else did survive. The part of this video that is missing is the pilot of the other plane making a really good landing with a parachute wrapped around his aircraft. (The news clip only shows a few seconds of it) Personally I thought that was the real story right there. Yes everyone making it out alive is good but landing a plane with that kind of obstacle is greater too. According to my research the group was attempting a complex maneuver/formation. They didn't have a big enough plane for them all to jump out of so they took two smaller ones. The pilots were attempting to fly close to each other so they group could form up easier and then the video covers what happens next. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fubar512 1,350 Posted April 23, 2015 That's good to hear, Skyviper. I was especially concerned with the pilot of the Cessna that lost its wing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
