| Certainly horrible for all effected by such a tragic loss. On a side note, however, I can't imagine working so hard for so long and spending so much money to have the opportunity to fly a Citation only to end up crashing. What a nightmare. ![]() |

| They updated the link I posted up there since this morning. Looks like what I thought. Some bad icing looks to be the blame early on... That's a horrible situation. That stuff is scary. I have never really flown a plane other than 172s and and seminoles so my rule is pretty much if it is below freezing I don't need to be in the clouds. Does anyone know what kind of anti/de-ice gizmos the citation has? It has to be able to fly through this kind of stuff right? |
