I shot these from the highway as I headed toward the Feather River Canyon to chase trains. A man and a boy were not injured after setting this Cessna down in Indian Creek in rural Plumas County California. This is pretty amazing considering how rugged this area is. The plane was pulled out of the creek as it was leaking fuel.

Great captures. I'd say more pilot skill than luck.

And the Skylane is a great plane.
