Just got the email about the East River (NYC) TFR. We all knew it was
coming, right? As tragic as the loss of two lives was, unfortunately
every time something like this happens we all look like idiots.

Hmmm...if say, a "Afro-American" (or whatever PC term is used nowadays)
commits a heinous crime, does that make all AA's look like dangerous
criminals?


To some, yes. That's an interesting argument to make, considering the
scrutiny aviation has come under since 9/11. When the non-flying public
sees another small plane accident, in this case a high profile crash,
it has to color their opinions of GA and maybe question the safety of
small aircraft flying over cities. It's this kind of negative attention
that we don't need.
