AVweb blogger Paul Berge recently observed–only half in jest–that an airplane would land itself if left unattended. It has happened, as this AVweb classic video shows. The incident, which occurred in 1970, has become known as the Cornfield Bomber.

This video details one of the most bizarre incidents in aviation history.
