The only thing reported by the local media was "mechanical trouble", the usual catch-all for any preliminary guess as to the potential cause. For as busy as that stretch of freeway is, glad pilot and passenger were able to walk away. Only four cars were hit, with only minor injuries.
Probably the one time a reeeally loud horn would be useful on a plane.
If they did, 10 people would have given him the finger and 2 others would have shot at him!
People can't see traffic right in front of them, let alone coming from above. They'd probably wreck looking for where the horn sound was coming from, lol.
The local tv talking head on the philly local news said they had to clean up a lot of "jet" fuel before the road could be opened. Surprised they didn't say a flight plan wasn't filed.
Shocked they didn't say #6 bunker ...
Not Jet Fuel...would be 100LL
