That there crow might be cold before you can serve it up though. . . They still are not ruling out foul play either. . . And it may be quite awhile before they say one way or another.

It'll be very interesting to hear what their final ruling is surrounding cause. . .

I'm betting that there was some type of electrical problem (I'm clairvoyant that way) that led to the aircraft being rendered uncontrollable which ultimately led to it hurtling through the air as opposed to flying and probably a catastrophic failure of the airframe in the process.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Yea. . . :biggrin: Had some experiences with that hobby of yours while with my uncle Sam. . . I'm thinking that was enough for my personal tastes. . .  :wink: :smile:

Being thrown out of an airplane at 800 feet with a rucksack and a round parachute is also not flying.  It's falling.

OMFG!  :rolleyes:

They're coming out of the wood work now. 2 pilots have reported seeing a "bright intense flash" and watching an immediate and sharp decline in attitude of this flight, followed by something about a "breakup". . .  They both filed reports with the airlines and transportation authorities.

Conjecture continues to "fly" over the cause of this crash. . .

I guess it depends on your perspective...I got out in the dark near Applewood on July 4 one year and it was way cool.

I found it unsettling since it dulls depth perception. . . at least for me. Of Course I wasn't over a city shopping center either. . .  :biggrin:

I had to google Halo..........and, I think IF, I was to jump out of a perfectly good operating airplane...I would more than likely do the HAHO........opening the shoot..........IMMEDIATLY after leaving the plane....

Now, with THAT said, I would LOVE to have the desire to halo.......because I think it would be awesome....at one time, I think I could have done such a thing.........but for what ever reason, that desire, has all but left me...

maybe someday?  :confused:

Yeah, before the geebuz freaks took it over.  That's ok, there was enough debauchery there to haunt that ground for a thousand years.   :biggrin:

Now that HAD to be pretty cool!  :yes:

And Henry, you'll have to do an awful lot of static line jumps before you obtain the ability to HALO safely. I know I did. . .

I suppose it's a thrill for a young buck, but eventually the risk increases when yah start "maturing", and your bones / joints will talk to you if you don't keep your skills up to snuff.  :biggrin:
