A few of you will know that Andy Wilson had a lucky escape earlier this year after he managed to pull off a great forced landing following engine failure due to an oil leak. It just so happens he was wearing a helmet cam, here is the footage..... www.bremont.com/mayday.php

Great Job getting it down.Looks like he overshot his initial intended field but got away with it.Quite difficult getting it right when the pressures on.I had my first engine faliure last year and managed to miss my first intended field but was lucky in that their was another close by.I too had a camera running and from engine faliure to being on the ground was 60 seconds.Not long to make a good decision on saving you life.Luckily for me a blocked vent pipe was easily fixed and i managed to fly it out and get home safely.
Its a great feelling when your training kicks in and saves the day!
