Some of you may know or have heard of my ex-wife.
She had started taking flying lessons about the time our divorce started and she got her license shortly before our divorce was final.
Yesterday afternoon, she narrowly escaped injury in the aircraft she was piloting when, due to volatile weather, she was forced to make an emergency landing in a garden and crashed.
The absence of a post-crash fire was most likely due to insufficient fuel on board.
No one on the ground was injured.
The following photograph was taken at the scene and shows the extent of damage to her aircraft.























All I can say is that she was very, very lucky!

That was a really close brush with death.

Witch type of craft is that? Looks like a single stick millet.

Blame it on my mother in law - she was the test pilot at the factory.

(Sorry Flo, wherever you are, but couldn't pass up the opportunity.)

Same aircraft my wife flies, can I have the wreckage for spares?

You didn't spell it correctly. It is spelled with a "B" and not a "W".
