Was that RV-List Rick Gray from the buffalo farm in Ohio that went down 

here in Oregon today out of Troutdale?

If it is I want to congratulate him on a Fine job of handling a engine 

out and landing on a street without hurting or hitting

anything major.

Sorry to hear about damage to an aircraft he had only owned for a few 

minutes.

YES  it is Rick Gray from the Buffalo Farm, Ohio.



Several of your friends up there in the North-Wet have been in touch with 

him.



I gave the president of your EAA Chapter his Cell phone number.



There is lots of chatter about this on OhioValleyRVator group and VAF 

forums.

The article suggests that it was a brand new aircraft.  First question mark.

Probably just new to him.



Then the landing point was perhaps 20 miles from departure (Sandy).  So the

"owning for a few minutes" seems accurate as least as far as flying "his" 

plane.



It will be interesting to find out why he was forced down so soon after 

take-off.



It also seems like his landing point was essentially an extended final for

runway 7 at Troutdale.

I am sure glad to hear Rick  Gray himself talk about his controlled landing in that Neighborhood!  

  

 A good landing is one you can walk  away from.....      GODSPEED!
