Could that spill have caused both engines shut down uncommanded?

I won't get it....I'd never fly with that carrier.

I don't want to replace the 'ain't' on my Boeing hat with 'is' !! Now the 78, after the 73....

One of my former students flies hard IMC in a C210 with boots, hot prop and windshield plate. Urged him to install a wing root mounted wind driven alternator that can be deployed with the pull of a lanyard. That supplies 20 amps to the radio stack. One night in IMC he needed it - and landed safely. Perhaps others reading this might want to install this redundancy.

Agree with practically every comment below. Been flying for 60+ years, but now have a motorhome and time. Don't fly unless absolutely necessary. AS DT would say - SAD.

The collision would not be like hitting a stone wall at 20 knots. It would be the same as hitting it at 10 knots, perhaps less, as the collapsing structure would absorb some of the energy that a stone wall wouldn't.

The use of the words 'insane' or 'crazy' is inappropriate for these men - they know exactly what they're doing! Spectacular or beautiful, yes!

Yeah, why?
