Re: Cessna 175 Down in Utah
Looks like the guy did a great job putting it down on the mountain. Glad no one was hurt!
The Sheriff Capt said "most people don't walk away". I don't think that is true of a lot of small planes. I look at the accident reports on the FAA site just to see what Not to do. I am pretty sure a lot more people walk away from crashes than don't. I am talking about small planes here. The twins, really fast planes and bigger planes don't survive so well. Lot to be said for a plane that fly's slow.

If you want to go up, pull back on the controls. If you want to go down, pull back farther.
