Dropping in at Alfonsina's - Whoops!


Going through some pics at my mom's. She had this one she took a while back when a pilot sort of over-shot the runway.

An overshoot is when the airplane ends up at the far end of the runway. This Bellanca crashed at the approach end, due to a crosswind the pilot couldn't handle.

Well, the only thing I've landed at Alfonsina's are some clams from the back bay. Thanks for the clarifications.
