I was there when it happened. We were close enough to feel the ground shake as they impacted and the heat from the fire. Thats the second time I've seen a fatal crash there.

I am dreading the next bit of news about this...
Looks like he was alittle too slow and stalled it... What ever the news reports, it will be bad and distorted. They know nothing about the facts of avaition and every little item is big to them...
Gotta love the clueless media, seems they do that with every story. Just look at thier reports on the NMAC in Ny.
It looked like one of the aileron control cables snapped. There was another angle on the videos that I saw that showed him applying full right rudder and aileron. But the ailerons weren't responding.
Interesting angle. Will have to check that out... I hope that is not what happened. To me it looked like he got off center, too slow, corrected with the rudder, and was too slow for Ailerons to respond.
So how's life in the cave treating you?
