Actually terrorism may affect smaller planes as more people use them, instead of airliners. Just a law of average thing.

That one and he was a doctor. There's a FR thread around here somewhere.

Interesting point...we have had two unsolicited resumes for pilots in the last month...both with middle eastern names. We sent both to the FBI FWIW. Probably nothing to it but it was just strange.

A small plane crashed today killing the pilot who had escaped the tsunami. Sorry I don't remember more details.

If they didn't stop enroute for fuel, the fuel load would be reduced by the approx 2 1/2 hr flight.
Possibly pilot error, but I recall back in 1988 a couple of instances at our local FBO where C-401 exhaust system failures nearly causes fatalities. One was caught by a dedicated very thorough A/P. The other was caught in the act of burning through the firewall, shut down, and landed promptly. The 'Y' pipe below the turbo is hard to inspect without removing some hardware. Sometimes lazy mechanics don't do their job.

No, he & his wife owned a title co. in Wichita Falls. They were taking their eldest daughter to a private girls school in VA. The others on board were their 3 year old, 18 month old & newborn baby. The 7th passenger was the wife's mother. The daughter had come home for a long weekend because her grandfather (the pilot's dad) is the chairman of the Hotter-n-Hell 100 bike race that took place in WF this past weekend. Very nice family. Very sad.
