A pilot walked away with minor injuries after a dramatic collision with a tree. The aircraft flipped over after trying to land in Plainville, Connecticut, in the US. The 79-year-old pilot was taken to hospital. Local media suggests his aircraft had suffered a fuel leak which caused it to lose power.

Lucky guy .. looks like something out of a Buster Keaton film ....

    Maybe he paid too much attention to that thing about "any landing you can walk away from"...

    As the car park looks almost empty he might have been trying to do a low left turn and land there.  Oops.

    The town's name of "Plainville" is a bit legendary by the way! :)
