Blackout in a trike
Viktor Moroz sends:
It all started with shoulder pain. I went to see the doctor who
made me do x-rays and ultrasounds. Diagnosis: small calcification of tendons. So
I had a treatment and sick leave because I could not bend my arms! The treatment
started, and I had adverse reaction to some drugs. Anyway, I did not suspect
anything at that time. I continued to live a normal life, so I certainly continued to fly. Then on one
day at around 1500 ft I started to feel something unusual. My head was spinning
and nothing more! I just said to myself, 'There is a beautiful field and I have
to land quickly.' That's all I remember. When I came to my senses, the trike and I were on the ground! She's landed
herself! A bad landing, but at least a landing! When I saw the state of my wing and trike, I said (beep). Finally all I could
say afterwards was it was well made. None of the cables had broken, no axis has
folded, and most importantly, I was alive! The trike had saved my life! What an amazing robustness! It made me want to
rebuild an AEROS trike. No advertising here, I am just saying what I feel. And
in any case I will never take trike machine but AEROS. AEROS staff and my dealer NORTH ULM asked for my permission to make this
information public, and I agreed because it really deserves to be published. I
am proud to be a customer of these of AEROS Ukraine and NORTH ULM LENS! Here is direct link to the Aeros' news:
