Not heard anything about this recent incident elsewhere but seems to have been a superbly rapid spot of decision making and airmanship! Well done that man or woman!

Way to go Kelly! :drink3: That quick decision probably saved the owner between $500K to $750K.

Now that's what good training and experience looks like. This is why museums and owners like their pilots to have lots of taildragger/high performance time before flying their fighters. Not only can it save lives (most importantly), but it can also save the pocketbook!
