Bahamas Police spokesmen states they don't believe there was a distress call, and that the weather wasn't a problem.

Exactly! The whole debate about how easily even a decorated pilot can lose it in IMC has detracted from real question marks in this story:

- Alcohol poisoning may be serious, but is not complicated. Any hospital can treat it.
- Given that night VFR is illegal in Bahamas, you wouldn't take any non essential crew on an emergency flight.

Is it possible that we just wanted to go to a trendy night club in Miami?
