I always thought a plane crashing onto the highway I was driving on was merely an irrational fear of mine. Unfortunately, it’s totally justified after watching this video.
DPS on the scene say the pilot was practicing 'touch and go landings' when the craft suddenly lost power and was forced to crash land in a field near the runway just off Rifle Range Road.
Here’s reason number 147 that I am NOT a fan of tiny little aircraft. None of these people seem to be over a buck seventy-five. I have doubts that a big boy like myself would fare so well. Then again, I might bounce better. These poor souls were on a short excursion in Idaho and were off to have dinner in a small town in the mountains when things just went wrong.
