Pilots on Canon Field work to remove the Lycoming engine from a Cessna 170. Gene (L) was landing this plane recently near Salt Lake City when he encountered a tailwind forcing the small Cessna to roll over. Gene and his wife were OK, but the damage was substantial enough that they had to pack up their crippled plane and drive it across the country back to this small grass airstrip just off Loop 1604.
