Elvis Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Looking at that picture it is hard to see a 206 and very hard to make it a survivable accident Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freefall Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 holy smokes glad the pilot survived. Doesn't look like there was much more room for damage on the front of that thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lefttoelow Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Man....... Sunrise has been having some tough luck in the past few years..... Anyone know who the pilot was? .... I may know him? Flew C-GUIK many years back. Altimeter setting yesterday in Southern Manitoba was 29.69, calm winds and humidex of +38 C at one point. Nice to hear they walked away.....!

Helilog Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Its good to hear, both pilots walked away from them, I think Sunrise is going to get a visit from "Big Brother", I don't know if the 3 strikes and your out rule comes into effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
