One wonders if the Ice Pilots film crews were around for this? |
Ice Pilots film crew is usually out of town over the summer so doubt there'll be much in the show about this one, unlike the Electra incident two winters ago.
Glad everyone was able to walk away, sounds like it could have been a lot worse. Saw the plane in Buffalo's yard this morning and it looked to be in surprisingly good shape.
