Absolutely bizarre, but on my way to take my little man to school there was a plane crashed in a farm field right next to the road. Now there's something you don't see every day!

    Sounds like your day is a bit surreal like mine with this guy on the ledge of our building...

    N850SY is a 2010 Socata 6 or 7 passenger Turbo Prop.

    Owned By Green Plane LLC
    out of Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin

    Sorry to hear about the pilot, the picture sure looks like the people on the plane could have walked away, sad!

    Wow. It must be one of those days.... not one, but two of my coworkers dumped their bikes today. Both seem to be ok. Don't know about the bikes yet. One is a Suzuki cruiser and hit a deer (!!!), and the other is a Harley and not sure what the circumstances were. :frown:

    Indeed, sounds like something was wrong and he was trying to land at our airport in Racine. Sadly, he was very close to the airport.

    Not my picture, btw. It happened last night, so traffic was moving, but all of the wreckage is obviously still there.

    Kitty, if you drive out on Spring it's right there! Can't miss it! Very bizarre.

    So glad I didn't see this before my flight. Funny thing, I used to love flying, found it incredibly invigorating . . . then I became a mom and now every time I do something that even resembles a hint of a threat I get scared.

    Me too! I've also developed a fear of heights! It's annoying!
