JP,

As an ex Puma crewman and current Herc ALM, a fact you are perfectly aware of, I offer the following,

On that fateful day the forward visibility at the point of impact and at the time of impact would have been less than 10 feet and decreasing rapidly by the nano second.

On that fateful day the forward visibility at the point of impact prior to the time of impact is something you, I and everyone else who has an opinion on this matter, including your fellow * Officers will never ever know.

Or did I miss something here.
