Golf Hotel Whiskey: for pilots and aviation enthusiasts

Plane caught in power lines

The aviation video blog recently uncovered a video of an August 2008 incident involving a German couple in a light aircraft who managed to get caught in 380,000 volt power lines some 30 meters off the ground. The couple, who were unhurt in the incident, were left hanging upside down for 3 hours until rescuers safely extricated them from the aircraft. It is presumed that the couple then DROVE to their destination.
