November 9, 200421 yr Good analysis of what happened. Sadly it seems not all that much was learned from it as similar things have happened several times since.
November 10, 200421 yr My heart goes out to the loved ones that had to stand there and witness this, especially Lt Col Mark McGeehans(the copilot)family watching his last official flight.:-(
November 11, 200421 yr Author The worst form of "Watch This" stupidity...It just saddens me so deeply to think of what those crewmembers had to go through those last 5-10 seconds, just knowing that this was it... theyre buying the farm because some dumb showoff thinks its funny. I tried to put myself in their seat... looking out the window, seeing the gound come up at them, knowing theres no way, no time to get out... It must have been so terrifying. Holland got his in the end... but to drag along several other guys along with him... *sigh*
