If he fly's a Husky, no doubt he lurks here wishing he was one of the cool people. :wink:

Seriously, though. I hope he has a speedy recovery! Harrison has been one of the best spokespersons GA could have asked for - he walks the walk and takes his training seriously.

The FAA "preliminary" crash report is out, apparently he hit a tree on the golf course before crashing.

Re: Harrison Ford Injured in Plane Crash

I read a blurb from AOPA's Robert Goyer today about Ford's forced landing. It said he has a broken pelvis, a broken ankle and some facial cuts. All survivable, but a broken pelvis is likely to take a while to heal and there's likely to be lingering pain during the healing process. He probably wishes he could be encased in "Carbonite" during the recovery process! I wonder if he needs someone to keep the oil circulating in his engines while he recuperates? He has been a strong and successful advocate for EAA's Young Eagles and GA in general, so I wish him well.
