IMHO, Yaeger's life is already blotted after what he said immediately after
Scott Crossfield's accident. So many options, so many good opportunities to
say good things about a great man, but he chose the tasteless route. Pity.

I like how Avweb reported that, they quoted Yaeger and then said
something to the effect of "funny, we don't remember Scott saying
anything after Yaeger ran off that runway last year." I'm also very
happy that the NTSB gave ATC 50% of the responsibility for Scott's accident.
