Whooping Crane

No Go. Racing Winds (+0 Miles) November 17, 2009: Migration Day 33 What is this? Photo Heather Ray, Operation Migration Winds blowing at 20 mph out of the ENE are grounding the team for the second day in LaSalle County, Illinios. Meanwhile, pilot Chris has been busy. Do you remember what happened to him last week when the team tried to reach this Stopover but had to turn back? (See and hear Joe tell what happened.) Chris's engine failed during the flight. He made an amazing emergency landing without engine power! Luckily Chris is fine and his trike now has a new engine. We'll have more about this later, but for now, see this page and think about what an ultralight pilot might need in an emergency. CraneCam is LIVE each day from 6:30 to 10:00 a.m. and again from 3:30 to 4:30 in the afternoon, just before sunset. The TrikeCam will be LIVE during flights!
