Condolences, to those close to the person. I can not imagine seeing that in person. It was bad enough, being at OSH a couple years back, when we lost a couple people to stall-spins, during approaches. -- Jim in NC --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

RIP Richard Bobbitt... Rick was a really great guy. It is a real trajedy. I saw some absurd reporting on this accident(as is usuall on most GA crashes). Here is an exerpt from a Denver paper: "Eyewitnesses told the Albuquerque Journal that Bobbitt flew his plane straight up and let the engine stall with the intent of restarting it as the plane fell. However, it did not restart." No need to respond to the Email address, I am just borrowing the connection to get online. See http://www.iac12.org/ for more. |
