|
|
The above aircraft, not in database, was flying over rugged mountainous bushland west of Sydney NSW, when it suffered an engine failure.
There was no suitable place to attempt a landing, so the pilot deployed the BRS. The plane floated to comparatively gentle landing in a residential area, narrowly missing high tension power lines.
The pilot and three passengers walked away from the crash, which severed the aircraft's tail, only one person requiring attention for a minor injury.
