Saddening news from Gulfstream;
http://tinyurl.com/3tbvpvw One can imagine how hard they were pushing the plane in pre-certification testing, and while this tragic accident should not really undermine faith in the new design, it could delay certification which would probably lead to cancellations. Hard enough to market a $65M private airplane in today's economy without something like this. The human cost is high as well. The chief test pilot was 65, and was probably looking forward to retirement. |
