Do you know that a recently fatal Cessna 421 crashed at Big Bear
airport is related to Cory Lidle's crash?

The 3 persons killed in C421 were the non-pilot owner, his friend and a
new hired pilot. The astounding story behind it is -- the C421's
original pilot was Tyler Stanger, Cory Lidle's instructor, who crashed
into Manhattan building with Lidle. The non-pilot owner then hired a
new pilot for his C421. This accident happened on the new pilot's
first flight (that carried the owner).

Sadly, this tragedy reflects a Chinese proverb: Good luck seldom comes
in pairs but bad things never walk (occur) alone.

Here are the 2 reports:
