Pilot's miracle escape as plane crash lands ... on a pile of Portaloos
With his plane stalling at 150 feet, and no time to return to the
runway, the pilot of a Cessna 182 was probably in need of the toilet.Luckily, he found a whole pile of them, and the crash landing on top of piles of portable loos probably saved his life.The
Cessna 182 crashed on Friday afternoon in Washington state after taking
off from Thun Field, an airfield owned by Pierce County southeast of
Tacoma.

Crash land: The Cessna plane lands on the pile of portable loos
The plane was about 150 feet (45 meters) in the air when the engine quit.Sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer said the pilot tried to turn around to land but didn't quite make it.The plane hit a fence, flipped over and landed upside down on top of the portable toilets standing in a storage yard.The pilot, whose identity has not been released, was able to walk away apparently unharmed.

There is one thing he was close to somewhere where he could check his knickers !! ........ :-)
