Default Horrible Aircraft Crash Video... Must see!

Some sort of complication during the takeoff run resulted in this horrible crash... fortunately someone had a camera nearby to catch a glimpse of this tragedy as it happened.



wonder what the black box will reveal? (if it is salvageable)

After he clears the grass from his goggles, nose and mouth perhaps he can explain what happened.

On a less comical note, there has been a series of fatalities over here in Finland involving light aircrafts, gliders and ultra-light airplanes over the past few months. I think four accident which led to four deaths I think, or something like that.

Those light things have their risks, seriously.

Edit. Actually I think it's like five accidents and three deaths. Quite a lot anyway.

The light things shouldn't fly when it is windy (and the pilot is supposed to be sober).

I think Rivet was joking.
