I'm not getting this
Nah, just looked at it again and it can't be real. Good job though.

Who needs parking breaks when you're just stepping out for a minute

Wow
I guess it is real. Just didn't see how the plane could have got there but i see from the other pictures that the grass is pretty steep. But how did it get there without demolishing the wing?

Wings hold the airplane up just fine in the air, why wouldn't they be able to on the ground too? Damaged, even severely, of course. Visibly demolished... ? Would you expect to see it folded up? It didn't drop that far... and probably relatively slowly.

Wingtips do not hold a whole airplane up. And by the looks of that the wingtip would have got one hell of a hit when she tipped over. I guess most of the weight is petty far forward though.
Love the sliced bread loaf picture. And no insurance to cover that one.

This happened at my airline when we used to fly Saabs. That picture is at one of our maintenance hangars, this one being in Memphis. During a wind storm in Memphis, the aircraft was blown away from its chalks, and into the storm drain ditch.

Hey 624,

Kinda reminds me of this one:

Whoa, I've heard of smokin holes, but little white boxes with red X's through them is crazy. I don't think anyone made it out of that alive.

I hate yahoo, but I don't know any other good pic hosts. I post a pic, and 48 hours later they've changed the hyperlink. The pic is still there, but I have to go back and re enter the new one. Aaaaarrrgghh!

I'll just have to 'hang around' a while and re post it when it changes again.

I don't know what would be worse. Hanging from those wires or having to explain you just drove that cessna into a caravan.
