I too find it difficult to believe that Ken Hill would have ever turned back in this situation with a field and a golf course ahead of him.

The question of extra fuel tanks is very interesting. Does anyone have a way to find out if Ken had them strapped on? I'm sure Sandy may know but this is not the time to ask. The extra weight on the wings may also have led to this possible stall situation.

FYI, Ken Hill posted several photos of his ship on the matronics
photoshare about a year ago. His build appears to have been truly
outstanding...a "10" by my measure...and gives some perspective to the
temptation to avoid off-field emergency landings, sadly something to
NOT avoid "at all costs".
Included is a photo of his long range fuel tank set up, though not
informative w/ regard to how it may have been restrained.
