Last day of the year for this lively amateur pilot forty years. As he had just taken off from the airfield flying a small aircraft, Wednesday, December 31, engine failure forced him to make an emergency landing.
Despite the mechanical problem, the pilot, totaling more than 400 hours, managed to land without too much damage in a field at the end of the runway of the aerodrome, along the road linking Giremoutiers Mouroux (D 44). Upon reaching the ground, the landing gear broke, making the device that ricochet landed for good, but off the track, one kilometer away. The pilot was unhurt and his plane, with the exception of the landing gear and engine repair, is hardly damaged.
it was an unforgettable 31 December for the experienced driver who reacted very well to its engine failure !!!!
