5/1/2002: 14th hole landing

Another fine MSNBC pic. Here, this lady has performed an good landing, which I'm told is any landing that you walk away from.

She experienced plane trouble (they don't say what kind) and was forced to land on the 14th hole at the Lafayette Golf Course in Lafayette, Indiana. Only after landing did the plane flip over, and golfers rushed in to help her.

Pilots, care to comment? It looks like she chose a flat fairway instead of a residential street (well done), and the grass was just too thick and lush to allow the plane to roll along.
