wrote in news:1189382647.136590.257600 @r34g2000hsd.googlegroups.com: Four, 30 somethings males + 4 sets of golf clubs (off to play on the Cape) + 90+F + humidity + ? in a 172M. EAA fly in going on at the time so lots of good witnesses. Pilot made a radio call that he could not clear the trees and was turning back - this was followed by stall/ spin. Very tragic in that there were several accounts that he could have indeed cleared the trees if he would have continued, also tragic that so many members of the general public witnessed this as the fly- in is a popular local event. jeff How much, exactly, did each of the 30-something males weigh? How much fuel was aboard the plane? I think it is best to reserve judgement until all the facts are available. Sorry you read a judgment somewhere, please re-read - just stating facts as reported and expressing the tragedy of the scene - I happened to be there and I am based there. Fly safe. |
