Hey, I've flown that plane. I think that was the one I hit an owl with on landing once (no damage).

Poor 206AV- this is the second time since I last flew it in 2006 that it has been bent up on landing. Must be cursed...
Wonder what the braking action was...

Something about that plane not wanting to land in Vernal after it was fixed the first time comes to memory.

I don't blame it. What a miserable dump that place is... they used to have to send me there kicking and screaming. Although the guys who hung out and drank beer in the hangar every afternoon were pretty cool.

Thank goodness the pilot wasn't damaged.

If I recall, there is a memo somewhere about that place!

Nah is a note on the back of run sheet. "Don't drink with the FBO personal if offered alcohol". But I haven't been there in over a year maybe things have changed.


Just got the scoop on what happened on the crash we'll see something soon Im sure on the portal. BTW don't bother asking. Ask your ACP if you really need to know. Just be careful out there folks...that is one lucky pilot.

No longer on the runsheet. The layover is actually nice in Vernal. Crew car too...

Thats the cheapest part to replace!! Those props cost like 30,000 each!!


Just kidding obviously, I'm glad nobody was hurt!

That's good... did they get an apartment or start using that new hotel that went up? We used to stay in that Days Inn that smelled like curried ass.

Weird, I hit an owl in a BE99 about 3 months ago. Was on departure and caused extensive damage. It was the day after the guy hit the bird that went through the windshield too, so Burbank got pretty excited about it...
