om...
I heard from reputable informed sources that he made 2 errors both
potentially fatal, but when combined, very bad.
1 - Just got ahead of himself on the pre-flight, and took off with
empty tanks, fuel exhaustion at 400 feet at take-off
2 - tried a 180 to get back to the runway instead of landing on the
country road (a road thats been landed on before, by larger aircraft )
just ahead of him, and got too slow.


What I'm wondering is why, after nine days, this accident isn't listed on
the NTSB website http://www.ntsb.gov/ntsb/month.asp? They have already
posted other ones occurring as little as two days ago.

Whoops. I looked a little more and found it.
