I sure do not want to second guess the pilot's choice. I guess I am though.
Human nature and all, when a death is involved. Perhaps the one person was
not visible until it was too late.

According to the article, his windshield was covered with oil... Yes, possibly
the surf would have been a option, but who can say he wouldn't have hit a
swimmer? We weren't there.

I can only hope that if I was given the choice he had to make, I would
sacrifice the plane and my safety, over the life of a person on the ground;

Since he had a passenger, the moral decision wouldn't have been that simple.
