Can you save it to a lower version?
My machine OS is not compatible with the latest players.
Windows Media 7 is as high as I can go.

If you can wait a day or two, I'll have it on our aviation video website.
(A fellow on the groups here snatched it, saved it in slow-motion, and sent
it to me...)

If you watch the wires instead of the plane as it comes in, you'll see
them sag before it looks like the plane is close enough to contact
them. It looks to me as though the wires guided the plane right into
the pole.

When I look at this again, what impresses me is how survivable it actually
was. The wires just happened to guide the pole so it went through the CFI's
part of the cockpit. You can see the geometry briefly in the shot where
they are dragging someone from the plane.

It just goes to show that the outcome of a landing like this will be largely
determined in the last half second and a quick yoke movement can be the
difference between life and death. Unfortunately, in this case, the wires
were flying the plane.

That's exactly why I turned a perfectly good 172 into beer can recyclable
material. In the last two seconds of flight, I saw three kids staring at me
out of the back windshield of a Honda station wagon going, at most 30 mph up
the freeway hill. Two choices...stay in the center lane of the freeway and
possibly kill the kids or slip over into the left lane and take the wing off
on the bridge abutment. Not much choice, is there?

It is amazing how fast an airplane turns over on its back when a wing is
gone. And I could, almost twenty years later, draw those kids' faces from
memory.

At the last moment the pilot
appears to veer away from the road to avoid rear-ending a car and instead
hits a power pole.
Passenger in critical condition, pilot did not make it.

Yikes, Jim -- that musta been a wild ride.

How many forced landings have you had, anyway?

They were turned around looking out the back window of the moving car.
And mommy and or daddy didn't have them buckled in because....?

Dunno about the Honda, but the back seat on our Ford wagon faced to the rear.
