LOS ALAMOS, N. M. -- According to Los Alamos officials, a single-engine aircraft landed on top of another plane which was also in landing mode shortly after 3 p.m. on Monday. A witness told Action 7 News that a Bonanza landed on top of a Cessna.
Both the National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration are on the way to the Los Alamos Airport to investigate the incident.
Officials said two people suffered minor injuries but refused treatment. Luckily there was no fire or gas spilled.
The airport was temporarily closed and may remain so until Tuesday.

I don't think they quite grasp the concept of the Mile High Club.

I'm no expert, but does that look like two V-tail bonanzas or did the tail on the bottom airplane break?

Heeheh! Of course they refused medical treatment. Somebody might have been spending too much time at the Tailwind Lounge.

It says "people"--do you think that's the PC way of saying "women fliers"?
