Well, here we go....

Here's an article from ABC News. Unfortunately, we all knew this was coming.

Again the media says it all....The Hendricks airplane was NOT a charter.

How long before Part 91 begins to resemble Part 121?

Oh well, maybe this will drive some of my owner's kids into their own G450's...TC

 

[crudeoilpilot]

wow

Yeah this guy really did his homework, summarized it is vague, uninformative, and pure fluff. Whoop Whoop pull your head out pull your head out.

About what I expect from the media in regards to aviation these days. Apparently having to have an FAA approved manual isn't enough standardization

The ironic thing is I can't remember the last coporate 91 jet accident. Knock on wood...

I beleive the last corp jet crash was the Hendrick's race team.

I liked that one thing at the end of the article about new safety system to warn pilots they are flying too low. Yeah, we don't have altimeters ans current charts.

Do you really think the FAA will mandate ALL small aircraft to have GPWS or TAWS? Yeah right.

Who thinks the Ebersol crash was because the captain decided not to De-Ice? We were taxiing out the other day and noticed a 400lb fuel imbalance on the sabre. That would have caused bad things to happen even on a good day.

That was a turboprop.

I could be wrong but I believe that all turbojets will have to have ground prox in the year 2005.

1. The chick that filed this story is clearly a hack.
2. All turbine aircraft with 6 seats or more will have TAWS installed before March 29, 2005 to legally fly.

Well, the news story I saw reported that the crash was of a Challenger 602, yes expertly reported as a 602. The media has completely gone overboard with this series of events. The aviation analyst of ABC news should be fired on the spot as well a Lisa Stark, the retard who published the story for ABC news.
