From a pilot's perspective, one of the most distressing things about that accident was all the condemnation of JFK from the pilot community, as if all these god-like aviators are immune from such an event. That adolescent illusion of invulnerability gets people killed. Yes. If you search the NTSB database, you can see that even professional air taxi pilots and crews and their passengers have died in that same area, in almost exactly the same way, on a moonless or hazy night. It is a common hazard along the islands here. You usually won't see pilots from this part of the country giving JFK Jr grief. But we should all learn from his mistake. It's also sad that some otherwise smart and kind people feel the need to take some kind of childish political stand on this particular wreck. Kevin |
