Good news story, with nice video footage: http://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-engla...rcraft-makes-emergency-landing-on-devon-beach

A vintage light aircraft has made an emergency landing on a beach after its engine failed.

Pilot Zac Rockey was praised for safely navigating onto the sand at Jacobs Ladder, Devon, which backs onto a tall steep cliff.

Beer Coastguard said he probably saved the lives of himself and his passenger.

No-one was hurt.
