If I had gone in a crash.....I very much would like to have my actions carefully examined to see what, if anything, I did that led up to the tragic event.

We are all human and are prone to make mistakes.....I thought myself the "Ace of the Base" and could cope with anything....KNOWING that was not true.

Heliduck is right and I have said much the same in the past but I also believe the discussion should remain professional, polite, and discerning.

The 169 crash thread is a case in point.

At times some posters appeared to be from some far off planet with their submissions while others have done an excellent job of using the official information to base a very technical and useful examination of the 169 Tail Rotor Control system.

Absolutely we. need to learn from our own mistakes and others as there is no need repeating either on our own.

As tragic as these events are....if we do not learn and apply the lessons taught....then they remain just a tragic loss of life.....with no good coming from them.
