In my case, lost power on takeoff with predicable results - you simply glide to the scene of the accident. Glad your friend made it too.
Enjoyed the post, thanks

No fries with mine, just coleslaw. and double order of crappie. what time ?? Beautiful post, and nice place to hang out. ` Thanks Jim - we are very fortunate and realize it and both believe God led us here. Used to live in Hernando Beach, FL - arrived as a kid in 1962 when there were 2 houses (a house & lot on a canal: $4500) and saw it grow to 750,000+ in the immediate area with no signs of stopping. Taxes on 85 feet of water frontage grew over 3K and insurance to match with a bump up each year. The red tide taking the fishing away ended "the dream." So we started looking. Connie had been born in Alabama, and grew up crappie fishing as I had in Clermont fishing specs with my Granddad. Started looking up the best lakes for them - this one popped up - homes on the best lakes: this old cabin came up. Looked very similar to an old cabin my father had built for deer hunting. The place kept coming back in the search, no matter where I searched - so we decided to look at it. Came up here, and it's old, a little gnarly, but livable. There's old concrete pads around that we can't figure out, the realtor is late, so we had plenty of time to look at everything and think. We're sitting on a corner of a concrete pad and Connie suddenly said: "I want this" - and I can actually hear her because there's no traffic on the road at all. So we bought it. 1/2 acre on the water. We had no idea this was the original fishing camp for this area. The docks & piers have fallen into the water and are now fish attractors. It's a great place to test out my lure ideas - if you can't catch one here . . . time for another occupation. Taxes: on 480 feet of waterfront: $300 - Business license: $4 - a bag of salad mix we'd buy in FL for $4: $1.50 - on and on and on that way which made a lot of other things possible again (we can help others). So I believe truly, God led us here to Lake Eufaula, Alabama. Happy fishing to you. Hernando Beach as it is now:

Looks good, the only thing I use is Louisiana fish mix (blue bag). Simple and a wife stealer! That’s the batter mix to use on speckled trout. Peanut oil and only peanut oil at 375. No other oil is as good. 400 gets close to burning the oil if you aren’t paying attention. Dip them in milk and roll in the batter. Don’t let the oil get much below 375 or they become a little greasy. Frying a bunch tomorrow for fathers day.

Sheepshead is good with that too (we had them under the dock daily).
