Damn Ferris wheels!
They'll do that ya know....Just blend right into the motif, an amusment park, so you can't see them.
Amusment parks are damn near invisable.....These poor guys have all my sympathy.
Oh well...better them than me.
I would have probably crashed into the TiltaWhirl.Impossible to see them too.

"Are you telling me you didn't see the ferris wheel?"

"Yes, I am?"

"Are you blind?"

"Well, not really, but by the legal definition....."

I thought bad things about the pilot, until I read the whole story. Seems the carnival set up in a field, and the ferris wheel just happened to get set up off the end of the runway - apparently it was a grass strip, and they really didn't notice it. Still, you'd think the pilot would have seen something?

Exactly the way I feel. Stuck on a ferris wheel with this President and his administration and being taken for a ride.

You made a category for this? You always make me laugh! Brilliant.

Once you commit to taking off, you don't get to stop and go back.

You don't get to put up obstructions in front of ANY airport. The owner of that carnival is about to become the FAA.

OK ... Australia's version.

An Ultralight in Oz is the equivalent of a Light Sport aircraft here.

Same difference though. Once you open the throttle and rotate, you are going to try to take off, regardless.
