Default Read the text you'll understand

I was looking through one of favorite safety sights (http://www.safetycenter.navy.mil/photo/index.asp ) and found this one. Here is the text under the picture:

"One of the truisms of aviation is, “Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing.”

Except this one. Fortunately for the pilot, this was one he could climb away from, as long as he didn’t get electrocuted. In fact, that may be him on the roof, just above the cockpit.

A contributor’s grandfather took this photo in Oshawa, Ontario Canada, in 1918.

Presumably this was an emergency landing. If not, it was a landing that became an emergency. Note the ladder wagon with a ladder on the side of the building, not quite tall enough to reach the plane"
