The NTSB website still only shows the "preliminary" report that says little more than "the plane went down". There's also a little blurb about the crash on this site (scroll down to "N41RH"), but nothing new: http://www.seabee.info/seabee_news_2007.htm I've never seen a final report so slow in coming. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
