I note the DAILY FAIL are more interested about the two chaps nearly getting squashed by the wheels, no mention of the propellor blades three feet above their heads! :-o

I think this was reported on another fora some time ago but I can't find it now

Good reason not to stand on approach!

It is unlikely that there will be an investigation into the incident because it was the twin turbo-prop plane’s last flight.
