Learning from other's mistakes..........
When I hear about any accident, it hits home heavily as I have seen accidents happen. My Pilot Mind starts thinking about what happened to cause any accident.
As with every accident, there is usually not just one thing that happens to cause an unhappy ending. It's this which lead to this which made this happen which caused this which made the airplane meet a sorry end. Anything associated with this event is purely speculation at this time but my mind goes to What May Have Caused This and What Can I Learn to make me a better pilot. If nothing else, it can help with that.
Be Aware. If you think it may not be a good idea, it probably isn't. We give out advice for OSH: If you haven't done something at home, don't try it here. We all have heard stories of airplanes getting away, some being personal. Sometimes it's better to just let them go. Airplanes can be rebuilt; families cannot.
Sincere condolences to the family, friends and to the aviation community at large. This affects us all in one way or another. We lost a Brother today. Let's learn from it..........
