No one was hurt. RIA-Novosti news agency quoted a local police spokesman as saying the accident happened Friday in southern Russia's Stavropol region.

It said the pilot lost his way, saw a tractor below and decided to land to get advice from the driver.

Not Russia....but u can see it from here...3 miles

It's almost as if he'd been watching too many Ohio Bush Planes episodes.

Hell yeah I'd land and ask some guy on a tractor for directions if I was lost. I just wouldn't hit the tractor with my airplane.

But no. Wasn't me. I was in Eureka Nevada at the Opera House watching Sourdough Slim. You Hosers missed a great show.
