In Australia, a Cessna light aircraft's engine failed, but the pilot managed to steer it away from residential buildings. (i.imgur.com)

Out of curiosity, what do you do for work that involves flying a light aircraft like this?

Maybe a bush pilot. There are many remote areas that don't have airfields big enough to service large planes and if medicine, food or people need to go there, they have to be brought in by smaller planes that can land on those airfields.

Here is a YT channel of a bush pilot in Papua New Guinea if you're interested.

Probably Instructor, to become the big jet pilots you have to start on the small planes.
