RV9A - ASN Report - PU-WYZ
Well, maybe a bit more than just minor damage, but an impressive piloting job to walk away from.

The pilot of a light plane performed an emergency landing in a field in Presidente Nereu, Vale do Itajaí after engine failure. The pilot sustained minor injuries and the airplane sustained minor damage.

A plane had to make an emergency landing on the morning of Wednesday, the 3rd, in Presidente Nereu, in the Itajaí Valley, after having an engine failure during the flight.

The Military Fire Department was called around 11 am to attend the occurrence in the locality of Santa Cecilia. Upon arriving at the scene, the garrison confirmed the air crash and found the pilot, 25 years old, outside the aircraft.

According to the pilot's own report to rescuers, the engine failure forced an emergency landing to be carried out. He suffered abrasions on his right hand and received care from the team on site. Despite his injuries, the young man refused to be sent to the emergency room.
