Emergency landing: Plane was on maintenance flight when it lost power
The pilot of a small airplane made a successful emergency landing in the middle of an East Anchorage street, and neither he nor two passengers were injured, police and fire officials said.
The red-and-white Cessna 172RG Cutlass landed in a snowy median, without hitting any vehicles, on Boniface Parkway near Perry Drive a little after 1 p.m. After the landing, the pilot and passengers stepped out, and the single-engine plane could be seen resting on the median as cars and trucks drove past on each side.
The two lanes of traffic closest to the plane on the four-lane street were soon closed. Later, all northbound traffic was diverted around the plane for about two hours.
Police Lt. Mark Thelen said the pilot reported losing power after taking off from Merrill Field. ........

I think the best recourse.. is to get rid of all the idiot lights.. the vocal intercom crap.. "check landing gear for water landing" BS and just look out the damn windows. Latest I know of is a Caravan landing gear UP on pavement in NW Ontario.. thank god wasn't gear down at camp landing on the water.
