Default Another GA crash in CA



by " Mar 14, 2006 at 09:55 AM


too bad he wasn't traveling with his son...


Okay, I meant his *evil* son...

Salem bin Laden (Osama's brother) died in an ultralight crash in May of
'88 (almost 20yrs to the day after his dad died) in Texas. (this
website is incredible)

I was amazed how many sports teams, both college and pro have been lost
over the years flying on chartered acft. Sad statistic.




It is astounding how many politicians, musicians, and athletes there are
in the database.

To be fair, not all the listed accidents are GA -- it includes the
hijacked 9/11 flights, space shuttle crashes, etc.

Its also interesting that someone takes the time to continuously update
the web site, but the info does look accurate.
