Well, I can tell you that another Lear 35 went down a few years ago into Groton as well. No survivors in that one. Part 135 repositioning for pick up. They went around after coming in hot and hotdogged it with a 90 degree bank at low altitude and brought the flaps up inadvertantly.

I'm in HYA and the local news is saying the aircraft was owned by Pat Robertson.

Whos that? And I guess you were right about 182K.

It has been very foggy here all day. Reports on the local news say 5 on board, 3 survivors. They say it landed .5 mi. short of runway. Pax were headed to Foxwoods.

Hey amateur boy,

How about you develop some skills commensurate with the aviators who perished at Groton. THEN you can come on here with your false and hasty generalizations.

Jarrod Katt was twice the pilot you'll ever be.

Condolences to the families of those two pilots killed. Anybody from on here?

Easy Boys!!!!

It always sucks when our fellow brothers move on and take their final flight. It does not matter if it happened by accident or by their own miscalculations, they are still missed. Now Amish's statement is consistant with the NTSB final report, so lets just leave it at that.
