Watch a student pilot lose engine power and land safely in a field
2021-08-23 00:00:00
Brian Parsley did not panic. When his small plane lost power, this student pilot calmly radioed for help and finds an empty field to land in.
Planes that have lost power can glide a fairly long way, so long as the pilot knows what they are doing. Mr. Parsley clearly kept his cool and got the plane down.
