Ultra Light hits Ferris Wheel
-
Did you see anything about this? Surprising that nobody was killed. They said one kid on the Ferris wheel was hit with some debris and slightly injured but he’s coming around.
-
This story has been around for days.

I did not hear about it. Here it is I guess

Is it just me or did Csaba just miss the punchline?
-
He'll get around to it... eventually
I heard the unfortunate lad also swallowed some coins - the doctors observing him in the hospital say there's no change... -
Ah well. I've been up and on the forums since early morning...

The penny dropped
[some change then!]

Yep, I put my hand up; it was one of our fools....
Some tool in a glider miss judged his decent. two very lucky kids!

Andrew, so that was in your next of the woods?
Looks like there was an engine hanging off that thing in the video.

I'd say the propellers tore the surrounding structure away while spinning after being fractured from impact. The engine looks fairly intact.
What a pair a idiots!

No Dave, quite a way from here; down in New South Wales actually... and yes, you're right: not a glider rather an ultra light....

Took the plane out for a spin?

I figured these rocket scientists were performing low altitude turns about a point (a cute girl at the amusement park) and experienced an accelerated stall that flipped them out of the turn and into the Ferris wheel.
Damned accelerated stalls! That top wing gets a little too much AoA and wham! -
