| EMERGENCY LANDING IN THE PAS The Pas, Manitoba March 16, 2005
On Wednesday, March 16, 2005 The Pas RCMP, The Pas Fire Department and EMS were dispatched to The Pas Airport as a single engine aircraft had lost parts of its landing gear and was preparing to make an emergency landing. It was learned that at approximately 1:30 pm., the Beaver aircraft attempted to land on Grace Lake when the right ski broke off. The pilot, the lone occupant of the plane, was able to avoid crashing the plane by taking evasive action to get the plane back in the air. There was damage to the undercarriage and the fuselage during the attempted landing. The plane was directed to land on Clearwater Lake where emergency equipment was available. At approximately 2:30 pm. the aircraft landed on the side of the runway without incident. Transport Canada officers on scene described the landing as miraculous, as the pilot wasn't injured nor did the plane flip. Further investigation revealed that the left ski had almost dislodged during the emergency landing. Transport Canada is investigating the incident.
Happy outcome, very skillful pilot! Photos: (c) RCMP |
