    MU-2 Study

    TIGV; Does this info come from the feds (presumably?) or is it something that the employer decided they should do in-house in anticipation of some forthcoming action?

    What a piece of Junk

    Rattler; Ask him again about the MU2. He likes the airplane-a lot! Go ahead, make his millennium. A simple man with a simple plan.

    What Commercial Aircraft could fly into Aspen besides the BAe 146/Dash 8/B1900?

    The Dude; The 146 was not often weight limited out of ASE. Unless the temp got above 72F. It was able to carry 88-100 pax most of the ski season both in and out, providing the DEN Wx was not alternate reqd. Although it looks like we did a lot of circling, the feds called it a "contact...

    What a piece of Junk

    Rattler; Why don't you ask avbug about the MU2? That will prolong the entertainment for all of us. He has a lot of answers for that topic. Lots of conclusions, too.

    MU-2 Study

    I don't believe Courkyle wished you death at all. I believe the wish for was exactly what was written. Courkyle needs no more connection with the passing of pilots in an MU2. I really don't think a retraction is in the offing. Somehow, I've become a little confused as well. It seems that...

    MU-2 Study

    Courkyle; Welcome to the webiste where a lot is said by people who know, or care, very little. TIGV says there was nothing found in the two previous SCRs. We both know he's wrong. But, he seems to be comfortable with a certain amount of ignorance in the matter. That's OK we know better. As...

    Another MU2 down...

    Bizijet; Thanks for your refreshing, concise comment on the SFAR requirement and the FAA seeking out those with the broadest background in the airplane. If there is any thrust to this whole bruhaha it is exactly that. Let's get the Feds to really look at the training requirement in the MU2...

    Another MU2 down...

    GravityHater; I certainly hope you don't assume you speak for all of us. It is not OK for me to die in an airplane. It was never, isn't now and never will be OK. I fear you romanticize the occupation too much. And if it's less regulatin you want, I fear you are already too late. The...

    AVBug; Disregard the reply from Tadpoles. She went home. It's from me, the Dad, the Turd. Hugs, Dad

    Another MU2 down...

    Hey Corpflunkie; Do me a big favor and stop pointing out what's "key" in your assessment of the MU2 and the people who fly them. You speak in historic generalizations that most people with your background do. There is a Japanese proverb that goes something like this: "If you understand...

    Another MU2 down...

    Good Morning All; Sad news again from KAPA. Don't like to sound like Chicken Little, but the things do seem to be falling out of the sky. My condolences to the family involved. It will be hard for them. It's still hard for us and this just reopens the scar a little bit more. My sincerest...

    The media officially knows nothing about aviation

    I lost my hero

    Sounds like one great career! Thanks for letting us all know about your loss. Please accept my condolences as well. This is a great group that posts on this site. They helped me through some tough times back in December and I know how much it means it have people acknowledge the loss of a...

    AT-802 Air Tanker down in Arizona

    Anybody know the pilot's name? I flew with a guy at ARW who owned an AirTractor and leased it back to the gummint. He also had it on floats and convinced the Feds it would be an OK deal. Last I heard he had given up flying. Would appreciate any info on his name. Dad

    MU-2 Crash in Hillsboro

    Hello All! Like Yogi would say, "it's deja vu all over again". Haven't checked on the site for awhile because I've been practicing retirement. I think I'm getting better at it. I was saddened to see the last MU2 story and sadder yet to see the experience level of the pilot. 17,000 hours...

    Anyone got the story on this?

    Actually, it just surfaced to re-charge the batteries.
