Pilot lands plane with only one wing.

[17 August 2010] [2,164 views] [No Comment]

There are many videos on the internet that you can clearly see are ‘fakes’ but this video from AvWeb.com really made me sit up and think what a lucky guy 22 year old Dino Moline was.

The wing came detached from his aircraft during a routine in Argentina and it was because of his full-plane Ballistic Recovery Systems (BRS) parachute system, that he survived uninjured.

Watch the video attached.
