The Bush family has way better luck than the Kennedys.

He was about a mile and a half from the runway, and he clipped the lightpole on the freeway. It was a tall lightpole, but there's no way he should have been that low that far out.

It was pretty foggy this morning, and the jet had come from Dallas through a front. The pilot may have forgotten to adjust for barometric pressure with his altimeter and thought he had more altitude than he obviously did.Usually when you are being handed off from sector to sector, the crew is advised of the new altimeter setting.

"Sad to say, pilot probably wasn't aligned on localizer (left/right of runway)."
If he had been aligned with the localizer from the ILS system both vertical and horizontal he should have had enough altitude to avoid any obstacles.
You're probably correct.

Absolutely. I'm just speculating as to a possible cause. I wonder if Gulfstream's have black boxes.

If it were foul play wouldn't it have been arranged for AFTER 41 on board?
Looks like our resident experts think it was an accident--my friend in Houston said the fog was terrible.

"Oddly, a thread was posted a while ago concerning a rumor of a plane crash, Columbia, and former President Bush. I suspect it was pulled for a lack of source, but it does prove that freepers are on the ball."
The poor person who posted that knew one of the flight attendants who worked that plane. She (?) had gotten a call from the woman's daughter. It is very sad to hear that this is true.

G-d likes...President Bush likes G-d.Laz, why does God care whether you use a different ASCII representation of his name?

Why'd you guys (and/or) gals pull the thread referenced in #41? Seems like you quashed an FR scoop here.

I'm sorry for the 3 people who lost their lives, but I am so thankful that the Lord saved Bush Senior.

I posted the one that was pulled. I didn't have all the information at the time. Our friend died in the crash in Houston that was supposed to pick up Pres. Bush 41. Prayers, please.

Why is the ex-President Bush's life more important than the poor souls who did die. Can we please pray for them and their families?

Laz, why does God care whether you use a different ASCII representation of his name? He just does. Says so in the user manual.
