No question they needed to do a $250,000 inspection of the complete aircraft to look for structural damage, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if there were a number of moderate injuries to the passengers. Maybe it was a checkout flight with no passengers, and the "pilot" got canned! Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
