AIRVENTURE

July 24, 2007

It's 'My Way or the Highway' for T-6 Pilot
July 24, 2007

by

On Sunday, a World War II-era North American T-6G made an emergency landing on a Wisconsin highway on the way to EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wis. Engine problems forced the airplane to land on Highway 41 near Fond du Lac Airport, and a state trooper caught the off-field touchdown on video. Neither pilot William J. Leff of Dayton, Ohio, nor his son suffered injuries, but the right wing of their airplane suffered damage after hitting highway signs.
