Default OT Plane Crash because of Birds

Exactly what I said - landing the plane without power with a low
altitude, low speed 180 towards a bridge, which he had to go UP to
get past without losing too much air speed


He crossed the GWB at 1400 ft AGL. That is more than enough to clear the 604 ft
towers. He did not have to go up to do it.

Look, he did a first rate job. I'll fly with him anytime, anyplace. But, like
he said, he was just doing what he was trained and paid to do.
