NWPilot, and a very small group of pilots, perform
a very vital service to the aviation community. Very Vital Service it takes a very special group of pilots to ferry "small" aircraft over the two big "ponds" off the east and west coasts of the North American continent. Yea, we have balls larger then an elephant and very strong mental ability's to keep it cool under the pressure flying aircraft with extensively modified fuel systems in over weight conditions over unfavorable terrain in marginal weather conditions. Then doing an ILS or some other approach after being cooped up for 15 hours or more. The North Atlantic, like the North Pacific, can be fatal to anyone who "screws the pooch". It appears, that in this case, a mechanical failure may have occurred and the airplane went down, taking the pilot with it. However, none of us in this NG knows the exact details of this accident and probably will never know. Correct, Unless they fish the plane out and some times they do. I have never been to Iowa City and have not stayed at Jay's establishment. He, and Mary, bust their asses off to run a great little business. Yes, they do and I patronize it when ever possible. I thank Jay for posting usually ditching's such as this are not even a headline on a newspaper. Thanks again jay ignore the childish flamers. |

As I watch your posts, your stupidity is hilarious at the minimum, and
criminal at the maximum. If you are a pilot, you exhibit a stupidity only exhibited by various US politicians. Please do not feed the trolls... As much as I appreciate your defense, I think it's safe to say that any real pilots here have long since discovered that "Bertie" is nothing but a troll -- and responding to him in any way only feeds his mental illness. Worse, the kill file I've set up only zaps HIS message -- not your response(s). This means I must read his drivel in order to view your post -- something that truly is not worth anyone's time. I know it's hard to resist the temptation, but the only way to make posters like Bertie go away is to give them no response. Sooner or later they find another playground to terrorize. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Nah, Bertie is an opinionated, crusty, sometimes informative, sometimes entertaining, sometimes annoying, old fart that doesn't suffer fools easily, but definately is not a troll. Like others that have achieved this status, he could give a crap less what anyone thinks of him and just says what he feels without having the need to justify it.

Yeah, right luser boi.. I know it's hard to resist the temptation, but the only way to make posters like Bertie go away is to give them no response. Sooner or later they find another playground to terrorize. Actually, that has never worked on me.. Feel free to check. Bertie |
