A Cessna plane crashed into the sea near La Rochelle Pallice after engine failure.
The plane was flying over the town of Saint-Clément-des-Baleines, on the Ile de Ré, when at 10:24 a.m., the engine of his plane suddenly stopped. At that moment, he was flying at 2.800 feet from the ground. The pilot made a distress call to the control tower.
The pilot finally decided to land in the sea, 5 kilometers from the seaport of La Rochelle Pallice. A dangerous maneuver: the man managed to land on the water, but rolled over several times when the landing gear entered the water. Miraculously, the pilot was still conscious and managed to get out of the plane before it sank. He was quickly recovered by a yachtsman who witnessed the scene from his sailboat.
The pilot was not injured.
