skymedic 0 #1 March 4, 2002 My little israeli buddy went for a skydive and got the ride of his life..his very short life that is. from what he tells me. they got all loaded up in the plane, seat belts on, take off roll was ok. after about 30 secs of air time plane started shaking....Both engines quite...Pilot went to go set it down on a road but there was car's inthe way so he put it down nearby in the ditch skidded a bit when the wing hit a burm and did a 180 turn....Good news is no one was hurt, and everyone got out right away. So that was Omri's adventure of the week.....marcBSBD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrumpySmurf 0 #2 March 4, 2002 Yikes indeed! I guess they got firsthand practice on an engine out incident..well a 2 engine out incident. Glad to hear nothing harmed worse than a few people problably needing new underwear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyMan 7 #21 March 4, 2002 Quoteit's the 4th time we had engine fairure with this plane!?!?!?!Most of us go through years of skydiving without ever having one plane emergency. You had three in the same plane and didn't think something was wrong?Still, glad you're ok.ICQ: 5578907MSN Messenger: andrewdmetcalfe at hotmail dot com Yahoo IM: ametcalf_1999 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #22 March 4, 2002 I don't think you will be jumping that plan for a LONG time dude..... Last gear up landing i heard about took almost 6 months to get the thing flying again. And yours is going to take a bit more to fix then a gear up landing.....As for the 206..... its a plane... jump it!Cause I don't wanna come back down from this cloud... ~ Bush Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skreamer 1 #23 March 4, 2002 lolI just read your sig - do you remember that time you posted asking if you could become a freeflyer because all freeflyers had beards and you weren't even shaving yet???
