Going Down In A Blaze Of Glory! You Fly Over Those! Not Into It!

James Kaufman, World News Report Today. Going down in a blaze of glory. I don't know how glorious this is. You fly over those, not through them. Terrifying footage has emerged of a small plane careening into utility poles along Van News Boulevard, just blocks from Whiteman Airport in Pinacoma, California, leaving the 70-year-old male pilot hospitalized in critical condition. This student pilot who rented the plane was doing what we call touch-and-goes at this very small urban airport and probably should have learned to fly at a much safer airport with some safer approaches. A single-engine Cessna owned by Vista Aviation and rented by the pilot was doing patterns around the airport and this was its first pattern when they hit the power lines eventually crashing into a parking lot at an O'Reilly's auto shop the plane had only been in the air for 10 minutes in other words he was about to do his first touch and go this is not the first time we have seen something similar at this exact spot and at Whiteman Airport we also have footage from the last time we saw a similar incident occur and we will be showing you that as well it was much more tragic residents have been begging the city and the FAA to close this airport for years as it has ended up in a very developed urban area with very difficult approaches and locals have seen one incident after another in the two videos taken from roughly the same location they both show that the planes were both coming in too low and ended up hitting the standard power lines in the area. Again, not a great place to be learning your touch and goes with a rented Cessna. The plane that crashed yesterday flew right into visible power lines and after clipping the line, the plane flipped over and nosedived into the ground, luckily making it all the way across the street into a parking lot this was the only reason that no residents on the ground were injured and we have footage of a similar incident in the same area but things did not go as well let's take a look at that now this pilot actually passed after making a huge misjudgment i can say luckily no one on the ground was injured it's the only good thing about this as you can see a huge misjudgment the landing strip is right behind that home bad news now this is a picture of White Mountain and it only has one dedicated runway you can see it right here these are taxiways and well storage and these are parked planes as well one dedicated runway And I guess if you come in too low here or here, depending on which direction you're coming from, it doesn't go real well for you. With that said, God bless, folks. Say a prayer for the pilot's family because he is in more than critical condition. Please give us a thumbs up. Please share and always remember anything is possible in the Bizarro World
