A few close ones, but thankfully no lasting damage. The 5 of us have had a
few serious ones though. My eldest brother had to do a no gear landing in a
Baron (mechanic error). In the mid 80's, my grandfather flipped a turbo
beaver amphib (submerged log). I did a forced landing in a amphib caravan
about 3 years ago (broken planetary gear on the RGB, accident report said
mechanic error because the part was over-timed). I also had a tail srike
while doing aerobatics in my Pitts (still kicking myself after a year and a
half, fun rebuilding it though). My younger brother sheared the right wing
off of a 1-26 glider (dumbass..theres a tree there...) My dad had to do a
single engine landing in 1998 in a DC-9.

This past tuesday, the cummulative flight hours between my grandfather,
my
father, my two brothers and I just reach a total of 100,000 flight
hours,
ranging from a Schweiser 2-22 glider all the way up to 747's and
Gulfstream
V's


Statistically, 1.4 of you should be dead by now then.
Any close scrapes??
