I probably would, but I think I'd try wearing a seat belt the next time. -- Mortimer Schnerd, RN mschnerdatcarolina.rr.com He was wearing it, but he somehow managed to 1) go to full throttle, 2) throw the controls to the left, and 3) snag his seat belt buckle and unlatch it - all at the same time. Not a good thing in an airplane without doors. If I was him, I think I might get the feeling that someone up there doesn't want me to fly! Well, I'm personally pretty skeptical of some aspects of this story and the accidentally released seat belt is one of them. Matt
