jakej Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Does anyone know about an 'experimental' aircraft incident in recent days, that supposedly happened near Atherton ?
Robbo Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 I know an ag pilot up that way so will text him and see if he knows anything.
jakej Posted December 6, 2015 Author Posted December 6, 2015 may have happened a couple of months ago - there's a whisper it was a Glasair III

Jaba-who Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Could be my mates aircraft. He has a glass air 111. A couple of months age he took off from atherton. Landed at his personal strip on a farm field down on the coast - about 10 minutes flying away. Had a heavy landing and damaged both main wheels and struts. Skidded off the side of the strip into the sugar cane. That's about the only thing I know of that's happened even vaguely related to atherton for ages.
jakej Posted December 7, 2015 Author Posted December 7, 2015 Sounds expensive, at least I figure he didn't get hurt.
