Pool pilot Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Bravo to the pilot. Congratulations....I believe you have done an incredible job saving yourself and the machine. Well done pilot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJP Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Well done indeed. A landing you can walk away from is an excellent landing. A landing you can walk away from and the machine can fly again is just as excellent. Bravo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Actuality Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 Occurrence Summary: A mid-air collision occurred between a L R Helicopters Inc. Bell 212, C-FTLR, and a Namao Flying Club Cessna 172, C-GJJL. C-FTLR was en route from Fort McMurray, AB, to Rocky Mountain House, AB, at an altitude of 3500 feet ASL and on an approximate course of 200°M; only the pilot was on board. C-GJJL was conducting a proficiency training flight with one instructor and a privately licensed pilot on board. They had completed their exercises and were returning to Villeneuve Airport (CZVL), AB, and on a track of 145°M level at 3500 feet ASL. The collision occurred 13 NM northwest of CZVL. The pilot of C-FTLR set down in a farm field shortly after the collision. C-GJJL continued on to CZVL and landed with no issue. The outer portion of the leading edge of the right wing of C-GJJL had contacted the right side of C-FTLR's tail skid/stinger so close to being so much worse. Very lucky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
