Aircraft down at Palwaukee

[HawkerF/O]

All 4 confirmed dead.

Gods speed, rest in peace. I know the pilot, very, very nice guy.

Actually, the aircraft was owned by 2 different people, both pilots and they used the plane for business. Which of the 2 did you know? Both were on board.

I knew K.K.
From what I understand he actually owned the plane with 2 others. I knew K.K. back when he had a Cessna Skymaster, I had not talked to him in about a year.

He flew out of a nearby airport of ours (OJC). I guess my boss saw 4 or 5 guys heading out to their 421. She said 2 were well dressed nice looking guys. I guess one of them was joking about if the other could fly this thing. My prayers are with his family.

Terrible.

Very sorry for the loss, Ken was a great guy.

The surveillance camera footage is scary. Problably did two turns in the spin, even that. I flew over the site several times yesterday, its really suprising how small that crash site is, for a larger aircraft like such, its probably 30 feet by 30 feet, of burn debris.

Like somebody mentioned earlier, I think ice is a definite factor... got all iced up, put the flaps down, which made it worse, and spun.

Did he sell that Skymaster? I used to work at Signature, I always hated fueling that plane!

Tragic story. There is a good group of people investigating the accident, so I think it's only right everyone keeps their opinions to themselves..

Who died and left you in charge of the opinion police?
