He's Okay... But He Dinged Up The Mustang

Pilot Walks Away From Midget Mustang Accident

Inaccurately reported by the mainstream media as either an authentic P-51 Mustang, and then a replica; a 61-year old pilot from Sylvania (OH) is okay after his (Bushby) Midget Mustang 2 made a forced landing while trying to set down at the Fulton County Airport near Wauseon (OH) Thursday.

Carlton Fraker was treated by paramedics at the scene.

Ohio State Troopers say Fraker was on approach to Fulton County when he apparently lost power. The Mustang replica made a hard landing in a field short of the airport, losing its main gear and ground-looping in the process.
