Thanks for the link, Big John.

The jet crash is intriguing. The article speculates that he got
caught in wake turbulence that caused the crash? Holy "Top Gun", I
thought that was a Hollywood contrivance.

Anyone know if flying "through someone's jet wash" (as Goose put it)
could bring down an L-39?
