I had the privilege of meeting a very well known celebrity...so well known at one time any one of you would have waited up to see her on dave letterman/

due to age and a bad illness she is less well known now. But she confided in me that she had been traveling in chartered business jets and thought that they were not well maintained...and she insisted on flying on regular well known airlines.

so it does happen...poorly maintained planes...but

one thing does strike me funny...according to one poster, the climb seemed well expedited...could they have climbed like HECK intentionally, and been near the stall at the end of the climb, attempting to ZOOM the last couple of thousand feet? OR could a faulty ASI had the guys climbing very well, until BOOM.


I agree now it doesn't seem a CFIT...with wreckage so spread out...but who knows?
