Sadness

2,689 Swiftsure  7.8 years ago

If your in Perth, you know about the plane. A plane was flying over swan river today and banked to hard, crashed into water and got smashed to bits. Very sad, 2 people died. Fireworks display was cancelled. ):

    Here's an article containing a video of the crash. He was too high to touch the water. Contact with the water happened after the plane stalled.

    @EternalDarkness the news people said the wing hit the water when he banked,and smashed the cockpit, ripped the tail off, ruined the engines, killed 2 people.

    @BaconEggs it was one of those Hughes gooses. He stalled it

    I saw a video. He lost power in a sharp bank and stalled. In such maneuver, a plane loses a lot of momentum, and needs a lot of power to keep the speed. I don't know weather he cut the throttle intentionally, or engines lost power. Sad thing...

    Was it a small Cessna or something like a CRJ?

    @RealQcan yeah. Fireworks display was at most expense.
