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