Yeah. Gold and green? Bad fashion sense. At least it's not black and purple, that would have ME worried.

Default Emergency landing for Olympic aerial photography plane

Quote:
An aircraft being used for aerial shots of the 2012 Olympic Games had to make a forced landing at Cambridge Airport.

The King Air B200, which was being used as an airborne relay station, had to land after suffering a loss of its electrical system.

Operators, ASL of Belgium, said the pilot had to navigate on Saturday night using only charts and a compass.

ASL also said the plane's landing gear retracted and the aircraft "fell" on the runway but no-one was hurt.

The Civil Aviation Authority was notified and the airport has been given permission to remove the plane from the runway.
Gold medal for that landing then.

The South Korea vs China female team bow contest final was ultra-tight. Under typical english showers and rainbows, South Korea won the Gold by 1 little point ! Amazing.

I watched some of the whitewater kayaking today. That has to be the most fun event in the summer olympics.
