I can't tell the aircraft type but I like the Navy blue paint job ... Painted like a Corsair. Glad no issues; I wonder if he got a ticket when he landed next to the police department???

[edit] upon further review, no it doesn't. Glad the pilot handled it well, no one was injured, and the airframe looks none the worse for it.

Re: Emergency Landing
Pretty sure it's a Grumman AA1, as discussed on another forum.
Re: Emergency Landing
No mentioned in the local news about any tickets, fines or any other type of regulatory sanctions, maybe the FAA but IDK. Last I heard the plane was transported back to the airport.MackAttack wrote:I can't tell the aircraft type but I like the Navy blue paint job ... Painted like a Corsair.
