Has anyone asked the pilot? He was flying the plane and if as everyone suggests it's a tricky plane to fly I don't think a low time or on type pilot would be.and really it's more supposition than real facts.also we need to ask how the pilot is feeling, that would have scared the s##t out of me cheers Gareth

Aldo, you are right i dont know you ,and far from aiming at you it was a general observation,the Murdochs,Packers,Rhinhearts, and a lot of the "wealthy" have done very little for Australia, Dick Smith helped put Aus on the map for rest of the world , he has spent his own money doing good things for the community , we collectively only remember the wrong decisions/mistakes that people make , the good things outweigh it by spades , Dick Smith is not alone ,there are many wealthy people who give thier time and money for worthwhile causes and the not so wealthy also contribute to/for the benifit of others ,generally i think that Dick Smith has good intentions for the aviation community,i have been in aviation a short time ,and have seen first hand what a few people are like , we all need to get on with each other, we don,t have to agree on topics but caustic remar
