So typical of Indiana Jones.  Thank goodness it was a muni.

Quote:

Actor Harrison Ford was seriously injured after crash-landing an airplane on a golf course in Los Angeles on Thursday, according to reports from TMZ and confirmed by major news outlets.

Ford, an avid aviator, was flying the small, World War II-era single-prop plane. It is unknown what forced the actor to abruptly land on the golf course. There were no passengers on board.

Photos show the damaged aircraft lying on the golf course, with scours in the grass behind the plane where it apparently landed.

USA Today reports that Ford "has been a licensed pilot since at least 2002," citing FAA records.

Penmar Golf Course, the site of the crash, is located in Los Angeles, Calif., not far from Santa Monica Airport, where the plane reportedly took off from. The David Kent-designed, nine-hole municipal course first opened in 1962, according to lacity.org .

I was even thinking of going to Penmar (the course where he landed) after work yesterday. Ended up going to a different course. To think I could have been there when Indiana Jones landed!

Since he's ok, here's my guess:

Right after he took off, he looked down and saw his buddies pet snake Reggie slithering in his lap.

In Russia, Harrison Ford says, "Get off my plane!"

In America, Harrison Ford tells plane to get off of him!

I think he did pretty well since his tail wing was shot up by his own gunner :-P

GET A BACKBONE, FORD! :-D

So maybe Han Solo didn't shoot first? :-P

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

A crashed plane is a type of hazard I've never heard of before...

I'll see myself out.

So, is a crashed airplane a movable obstruction, immovable obstruction, or GUR? :)
