Everybody here rants about the media when they jump to conclusions and print stupid **** in the papers. Aren't we doing the same thing here? Everybody's looking at a picture of an airplane in a tree and assuming it's the airplane's fault. Hasn't it occurred to anybody that this might have been one of those FAA-standard 50 foot trees that leap up out of nowhere to catch unsuspecting airplanes (kind of like Charlie Brown's kite-eating tree)? The tree doesn't look to be 50 ft tall, but you definitely do have a point... As a snow skier, I am well aquainted with the fact that there are certain trees who take a perverse pleasure in jumping out in front of you and attacking you... Hell, if you don't believe me, just ask Sonny Bono or Michael Kennedy... Oh, wait a minute... You *can't* ask them since they were stalked and eventually murdered by a tree... Slammed, by a tree.
