Lucky people.


Lucky to have walked away from the mishap, yes.


Here's a little more factual information:

TWO BONANZAS LAND ON SAME RUNWAY, AT SAME TIME
(http://www.avweb.com/eletter/archive...ll.html#193665)
On Monday afternoon, pilot Robert Johnson had just touched down in
his Bonanza at the Los Alamos County Airport in New Mexico when
his passenger noticed an ominous-looking shadow just ahead.
Another Bonanza, on short final, was trying to land on the same
runway (http://www.koat.com/video/10260444/index.html?taf=alb),
and crashed into the top of Johnson's airplane. Unhurt, Johnson
struggled to maintain control as the two entangled aircraft rolled
down the runway and coasted to a stop. The pilot of the second
airplane, who also was uninjured, said he'd mistakenly been tuned
to the wrong radio frequency, and the first Bonanza was not
visible to him as he flew the approach. Johnson and his passenger
were unable to open the doors or windows and had to be extricated
from the cockpit by rescue workers. A similar accident occurred in
Florida in December 1999.
