They were at 30 feet above ground and the wheels hit the wire the plane probably nosed down right in the river... Just no flex for error when flying at those altitudes. Those phone lines are pretty strong and the plane is light. The pole actually broke.
Sharkbait OOHAHA!

Dang Tark, sorry to hear. My condolences.
A student died earlier this week in the class ahead of me; first time in the dive schools' history. It's still being investigated so I don't know exactly what happened. There's always an element of danger in things like these, just need to stay sharp. That class is graduating this month too.
*edit*
I guess the wrong info was being passed around and the guy I mentioned above is not dead, but still in ICU.
Sorry to hear about the official news Tark, that sucks. If learning to fly is a passion for you I hope this doesn't sway your decision to do it.
