Pilot Lands Safely After Engine Failure | Topeka News
A small plane carrying just one pilot, 76-year-old Melvin James, went down in Cowley County, Kansas, after engine failure during landing — but thanks to his seatbelt and quick actions, he walked away with minor injuries. The single-engine North Wing Maverick 2 RT is now under investigation, with authorities focusing on what caused the sudden power loss. No other lives were at risk, and the pilot is expected to make a full recovery — a sobering reminder of the fragility of flight, even for seasoned aviators.
