Hopefully not the start of a new trend ...

Watching the news last night ...

First up - Authorities have released the names of the 3 killed in a Sennica
crash. (3rd crash in that part of the country in (I think) about as many
months)

Second up - Video footage from the funeral of the 2 killed in a 172 crash
several days ago.

Third up - Small jet fails to get airbourne somewhere in the USA and takes a
trip across a highway and into a building.

Not a good week for aviation :(

Bad news comes in threes, they say, so we should be good for awhile.

OTOH, our local newspaper had a beautiful photo of an Arrow waiting to
take-off in the early morning as a C-172 was landing. They got the details
right too! (except for capitalizing Cessna).

Heh heh, they did mention the fog, but missed the fact that the Arrow's gear
was up.
