OK, shutterbugs, I'm looking for any photos or video you might have of bad landings...the more comical or embarrassing, the better. I would like to use these photos for a short mockumentary that will be included on my next Fritz the Fox DVD, which should be completed very soon. All contributors will receive screen credit and a free copy of the DVD.

You must own the copyright to the photo/video, or it must be in the public domain(like US Gov photos).

Only people contributing pix/video that I actually use will get a free DVD.

Show me what you got...deadline is this Monday.

Minimum picture rez is 720x540 or better, but I can go a little smaller if it's worth it. Ditto for video.

It was scanned from a photo at the Cradle of Aviation Museum on Long Island by my deceased friend and I have permission from the Museum to use the pictures......I like that pic, i might have another 100 pics of plane crashes, this is the number of CD's I have with about a 100 pics on each....

Indeed they did! Legs must have been shaking a little after that one.

As hairy as it looks I'm sure.
