Picture of damaged Cessna

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have an electronic copy of the picture that is in Dan Poynter's book of a Cessna where a person was pulled through the side?

Thanks,

Nigel

Parachutist also has one from Bob Grigsby's death in Michigan . It was 3855 Gulf.When Pop-Tops were first coming out. for a time line. His mother said if his came in on time her boy would be alive today.



Thanks ,it is one reason I like my teardrop. I am back to jumping 182 type aircraft and the door is full of potential snags - but I love flying in small planes so its not a problem.

A guy at work flies for fun and our chat turned to what can go wrong hence the picture request.
