The below picture shows the place where the landing gear settled, the propeller would of course be ahead of that, the black tar line in front of that was where the back of the fuel truck was. As you can see the plane took a dead aim at that fuel truck. The back end of that fuel truck was only 10 feet from the propeller.

10 more feet and It would have been ONE LARGE BOOM

So happy that everyone is OK. Glad to see the nose gear stayed attached keeping the nose from digging in. A walk away landing is never a bad one, other than the hurt to the wallet.

Mr. Crock! Thank God you are ok, and that all are safe. You are a great pilot, player and friend. We all give thanks to God that you are fine. The plane…oh well :whistle: Better get Macco and Midas on the job. Do not worry about that, in time it will get fix and you will be in the air again. Remember to always be safe; your family needs you, so try not to scare them.
P.S. Mental note for the next landing: The runway is not green!! :blink:
And do remember planes are not meant to go off roading; so treat it niiiiiiiicer next time. Lol
But seriously , WE ARE ALL GLAD YOU ARE FINE. Oh! and no it was not pilot error, it was the ice on the runway. Many blessings to you and everyone in your family Mr. Crock.
