Your reply was cut off, and I definitely want to hear the rest of the story.

I found the court's account quite educational from a safety standpoint, yet riveting from a personal standpoint. Reading through the court's account of how to decide the pre-impact pain and suffering--the thoughts and feelings that must have been in their minds those few seconds--sent a chill down my spine.

I'm sorry for all involved. What a tragedy.


I'm quite troubled that the court ruled it's too much to expect a licensed pilot to be able to successfully execute a go-around without stalling and crashing.
