nice reporting this time, no blatant attempts to sensationalise it. Good outcome, glad he's OK.

Grumman Ag cat (G-164)

Hmmm.. Went quiet and no post crash fire.

Calling an Ag-Cat a 'light aircraft' is like calling a Hummer an SUV... but a good outcome for a dangerous event. There are not many decent places near there for a forced landing.

yeah, over 3100 kg MTOW... still at least they didn't call it a Cessna
