Sounds like you are a lucky guy. Thank the LORD ! Is that the plane you just refurbished a few months ago ? To hell with the plane – you can always fix the plane. I hope all your injuries are repairable. Get well, GOD SPEED.
I just hear about your AT6 accident. I hope your injuries are slight and that you are well soon and back in the air.
