Pilot Landed His Piper Navajo On Beach In Florida, Was
Uninjured
The pilot of a Piper Navajo who departed the Bahamas for Florida
ran into a problem near the end of his flight, but fortunately he
managed to make it just to the shore. The NTSB preliminary report
indicates the pilot followed correct procedures for a fuel problem,
but he wound up landing on the sand in West Palm Beach, FL, when
both engines lost power.
