Possible Vapour Lock Addison USA

[Mewp]

 

The theory is vapour lock and this video appears to show the pilot trying the impossible turn to return to the runway. 2 POB both badly injured but alive. Piper Sport aircraft.

WOW!!. But why do pilots forget to fly the plane. AMAZING they survived.

Doesn't look very survivable.. They were lucky if they do survive OK. . The last thing you want it to do is lose control. As they say, fly the plane as far as you can into the accident.. Nev

Pretty compelling that short clip, the urge to turn back would be very strong indeed especially if ahead is cluttered with buildings etc.
