They have moved the plane from the ice to an adjoining car park. It was blocking the main taxiway — so that makes a lot of sense.
I guess they are still waiting for the FAA to finish its investigation — and hopefully to get a new prop. That seems to be the only thing that got damaged. I have to suspect that a prop is not cheap. Plus most likely their insurance will go sky high.

Plane That ‘Crashed’ At Alton’s Famous “Airport On Ice” On February 10, 2019.

We drove by at 3:45pm hoping to take some pictures of planes to add to those that I took last Sunday.
This was the ONLY plane there was and I knew that it had had a mishap. It was all on its lonesome in the middle of the taxiway and you could clearly see that it was propped up. From past accidents, I assume they have to wait for a FAA (NTSB) inspector to come and check the accident and give the ‘all clear’.
When I got home I saw the ‘Union Leader’ post (above).
We have had more spectacular crashes in the past. See below.

Do NOT Think That Prince Philip, 97-Years Old, Queen’s Husband Or Not, Should Be Driving On Public Roads.
Wow. This blew my mind. He is 97-years old. That is one heck of an age. Driving … on public roads. That just doesn’t seem right.
What I always say about older drivers. It is not that they can kill themselves. That is OK. It is that they can kill somebody else. We were all LUCKY here. The others young ladies involved in the accident, including a 9-month old baby boy, were not badly hurt. But, they could have been. If they were, or if they were killed, there would have been hell to pay.
Yes, he is essentially ‘King’, but this is also the 21st century. He can’t go around causing mayhem.
I kind of like him. He, of course, is not in the same league as the Queen. Something about him. To I, he comes across as a total toff. But, I don’t dislike him. Find him vaguely amusing. Yes, appreciate that he has done a lot for the Queen and as such for the country and us. So, I am cool with that. This is not about him personally. It is about a 97-year old driving.
I am so glad it ended like it did. It could have been so, so worse.

This was NOT a serious accident, unlike the one in September 14, 2017, that killed an elderly pedestrian in “Chart Room Restaurant” parking lot.
This was ahead of the approaching storm and as far as I can tell there was no bad weather involved.
For the Island, Mount Desert, this is a busy stretch of road. I do NOT think the restaurant was open. Not much open up there this time of year.

This was around 6pm tonight. It was snowing quite hard — and there was a major accident down the road.
Teischan and I love seeing our red and green lasers bouncing off the snow flakes. Managed to capture it, fairly well, tonight. Pretty cool.
Had to clean the snow off the laser lens a few times. It was falling that heavy.

THE Picture Of The Night — Police At A 6-Vehicle Accident In The Snow (Alton, NH).

Just after 6pm, with it snowing hard, I went out, just in my sweats, to take some pictures. Noticed that the sky was blue down the road. Kind of suspected that it might be police. So, had to have a look. About 300 yards. Walked out, in my sweats. The dogs followed, off lead. It was a police car. They had blocked the road — Prospect Mountain Road. 6 vehicle pile up below. I only managed to get one ‘acceptable’ picture. With the heavy snow and light, it was not easy.
The blue police lights reflecting off the snow was COOL. As you can see. Teischan came out looking for the dogs, with their leashes. That is her, at the top, coming back — the dogs still off their leashes. We went back — again, once I put on a jacket and boots. Crazy night.
I liked the blue sky.
