Looks like it was pretty nasty weather in the crash video.
That has got to suck. :cry:
Even the crash was to scale, with smoke and everything. I wonder how long before that video shows up on the internet as proof of some sort of gov't cover-up??

Surface to air missles again? Nope looks like pilot error.

I fly models as well. Fortunately I have only lost one so far. I know what those scale turbines cost... NOT CHEAP! That plane WAS beautiful.

Clearly an alcohol related accident.
I think it's Bush's fault, planned by the CIA, pulled off by the Isrealis (sp).

I guess when you couldn't afford to keep at it, you switched to running the big poker run catamarans every weekend... :idea:

No...Brown....Actually the friends that I flew with all were co workers of mine at Eastern Airlines....When Frank Lorenzo destroyed the airline ...most of my friends who I flew with scattered to all parts of the globe to stay in Aviation....Myself,realizing the riches in painting busses for a living... :wink: chose to stay here,and well.....the rest ...as they say... is history....

He worked at the terminal and drank the mini liquors in the galley, went on strike, shut down the airline and blamed it on the CEO. So I heard. :cool:
Oh yea some of the best mechanics on my dock worked with him. And also one Managing Director currently of facility maintenance. They have very good things to say about him. Go figure, they are probably saving themselves from perjury. :wink:
Come by again BH. What dock and shift are you on? I can get away anytime.

Great pics but the video....how long have tripods been around?? Why is it that people can't use them when they are shooting from a distance? Watching those made me feel like I was watching it while hitting wakes on the lake!!
(Could be that I'm a videographer and notice these things...) :D
