212man. You're right, the language may have been a little flippant. Certainly meant no disrespect to those who've lost their lives or loved ones in 76s or anything else for that matter. I've lost enough friends to this industry to have had that circuit breaker reset years ago. The point was to illustrate that all aircraft experience problems which inevitable either get fixed, or the aircraft fails of its own merits. If any offense was taken, I apologize. By the way, were you in Somalia in 94?
Thomas Coupling, you seem to think it's all a bit of a lark. While preaching the merits of an open forum, without offensive or libelous language, you're quick to make stupid assumptions on an accident which killed someone. Is that not offensive? Believe me, there's no hysteria on this end, but I will try to provide accurate information when it's asked for. Maybe you should try the macrame sites.
