The But Aging Pilot Found That The Landing Was Just The Beginning Of His Problems
On a rainy night last Friday, pilot Russell Brothers Jr. had a problem with his 1961 Twin Beech. Unable to extend the landing gear on a flight from Miami to Dickson, TN, he made a decision to put the plane down on its belly and hope for the best. The spot he picked out was a field he'd flown into for over 50 years before it closed.
