WOW!!! It's amazing that no-one was killed in that one it's obvious someone from above must have been on their side.

wow indeed!
I've seen pics of two C152s coming together like this and one doing the landing with the other still attached to the top of it

No, someone from above was on their roof!
I have a question. Who would go in the logbook as Pilot in Command for the landing?
Didn't it happen during the war with a pair of Ansons or Oxfords? Of course, the Germans used to do it differently with their piggy back Mistel combinations.

Ah, but the Mistel was a Fw190 A-8 when it landed.... ;)

I would guess the pilot below. :) Now would he log that as multi-engine time? :D

Unless, of course, it was a Bf109?
Whereas the Ju88 was always just a smoking hole in the ground.....

Check out the slideshow for pictures. Those in the C152 are lucky not to have been killed. I'm guessing that the Ag plane was empty since it didn't completely flatten the smaller aircraft.
