Sir Alan Sugar 'crashes' at Barton.

Sir Alan Sugar 'crashed' at Barton/City of Manchester yesterday during a thunderstorm.

Nothing serious, off the end of the runway and onto longer grass, aircraft only suffered an inbalanced prop.

It really isn't a serious incident, as he said himself.. Although, attempting to land in a Cirrus during a thunderstom really isn't the best idea!!

The news report gives the impression he was the pilot, who knows?

was sir alan the pilot?

overdramatised as usual - i read in another newspaper I read that the passengers on board screamed in terror as the plane plunged 10,000ft while Alan Sugar fought with the controls to avoid the school for blind orphans...

[Adam!]

Yes he was the pilot!

He's always flying, mostly at weekends!

He's proberbly flown to an airport near you.. I know he's been at Humberside a few times before, never seen him though.

Lol it is over-dramatised! Sir Alan brings it back down to reality though. I like how he says "While we waited in the lounge for a mate to pick us up." He doesn't act snobbish or posh at all
