Colyn,

There's a pretty good hill = rising up=20 to the approach end of runway 36 at F70. My guess is that when it = became=20 apparent he couldn't clear it, the pilot turned right toward the = lower=20 terrain of the ravine. The plane came to rest about a quarter mile = from=20 the runway. What wasn't clear from the photos I've seen was = whether he=20 landed with the gear up or down. If it was down, it = collapsed. =20 Either way, it was nice to see a successful outcome to a pretty bad=20 situation.

Skip=20 Slater
