Light plane crash down south

[creator2003]

Well as some would know from yesterday that light plane went down about 3-4pm and alot would know that they have been found alive but with injurys ofcourse ,it was great to hear one of them walked with his injurys 5 hours to lite a fire to help his mate that had more serouis injurys ,this is just great stuff that even after slaming into a mountain that he had it in him to do such a thing and what a bit of luck finding that hut in the middle of nowhere ,my best wishes are with them in there recovery and familys at this time
im just glad this potensionaly bad crash has turned out pretty dam good for them apart from the injurys that will take them awhile to recover from ....
