He was on a cross-country exercise while training with No. 14 Squadron RNZAF on the 3rd of July 1985. While attempting to beat up the farmhouse of his wingman&#8217;s parents, he struck high tension power cables strung across a valley. The aircraft was put instantly into a spin from around 100 feet. Pete ejected a split second before the jet struck a hillside and exploded. This is one heck of a survival story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The music used in this episode is&nbsp;<em>Hazy After Hours<\/em>, from <a href=\"https:\/\/mixkit.co\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mixkit<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Quick Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2022<\/strong> <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/2021\/10\/wonz-246-great-escapes-1-geoff-hubbard\/\" target=\"_blank\">Great Escapes 1 &#8211; Geoff Hubbard<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2022<\/strong>&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/2021\/11\/wonz-248-great-escapes-3-phil-barnes\/\" target=\"_blank\">Great Escapes 3 \u2013 Phil Barnes<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2022<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/2022\/02\/wonz-253-great-escapes-safety-and-surface\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Great Escapes 4 \u2013 Safety And Surface<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2022<\/strong>\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/2022\/04\/wonz-258-great-escapes-sean-singleton-turner\/\" target=\"_blank\">Great Escapes 5 &#8211; Sean Singleton-Turner<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Webp.net-resizeimage-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"519\" src=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Webp.net-resizeimage-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Webp.net-resizeimage-7.jpg 630w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Webp.net-resizeimage-7-300x247.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Webp.net-resizeimage-7-150x124.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Webp.net-resizeimage-7-400x330.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Air to air view of No. 14 Squadron Strikemaster NZ6367, flown by Pilot Officer DP Barham flight over Cape Reinga, during exercise Falcons Roost 17 at Kaitaia Airport.
