Much better than my friends on their honeymoon who were landing in a Dash-8 and hit two wildebeast!

Does anyone know anything about the DA40NG that landed in a field two days earlier? Again, only minor injuries.

This was an interesting weekend for engine power:
9/13 - SR22 lost power, chute pulled
9/14 - SR20 lost power, chute pulled
9/15 - DA40NG (probably) lost power, landed in field.

And for good measure:

9/20 - DA20 lost power on approach, crash-landed in field
