This is the usual precursor to the final report, which usually contains
the same information with the addition of the NTSB's Probable Cause.

I skimmed it -
bwb weighed in at 246 lb & 5ft 11 1/2 in Anterior artery from heart
almost blocked.
Toxic cocktail of painkillers etc. None disclosed on medical.
Three plugs oiled up. The lid might have opened, scattering stuff.....

on my last annual I found 3 plugs oiled up. effect on the engine
performance was nil.

I could be jaundiced here but surely the drugs were prescribed.
was the real failure a failure of the american medical system to
diagnose and correctly treat his blocked anterior artery?
