gatt, call your local news station and give them an atta'boy for not
saying the engine stalled.


Good point. They didn't! The local media is treating him like a hero. No
word from the neighborhood association yet, but I imagine it's a matter of
hours before they express outrage at the gross irresponsibility of that old
airport operating next to their brand new housing development.
