Photo Comment

Upon returning to base after a meeting of light planes, where I photographed their arrival, a failure in the fuel system caused the engine to stop, resulting in a forced landing on a highway. The accident resulted in only minor injuries to one of the occupants, some damage to vehicles and the loss of the plane.
