One news source says a "similar" plane was registered to Dr. Ronald Marshall who works as an OBGYN here in Manhattan.

Also, this from wabash station:

"He had a terrible accident where he was flying his depressed son home and his son just stood up and jumped out of the plane- no chute or anything. He had the hardest time landing the plane he said. Hopefully him and his son are having a blessed reunion now."

I think you mean cue. I've only heard queue used by Brits to mean a line of people.

Also I think okcat has made like 2 dead jokes on this site and hasn't made one since Dylan Meier died 3 years ago.

i know that there are infinitely more fatal car crashes than plane, but it seems like i keep hearing about small, personal planes going down. is having a plane worth the risk?

Man, we're becoming the Oklahoma State of losing emaws in plane crashes.

you keep hearing about them because you hear about every single one of them and they are big news when they happen...unlike car crashes.

also 99% of all plane crashes are preventable and due to some sort of pilot error.  so if you're going to cut corners and take risks, then no, having a plane definitely isn't worth the risk.

I need a pilot to tell me what circumstances would persuade you to cut corners or take risks when the potential circumstances are so grave.

People don't use seatbelts.  If people are too lazy with that level of ease/potential consequence, its not hard for me to imagine pilots doing something stupid.

I am a private pilot and I've been around pilots my entire life...including a few that have died in plane crashes. most start cutting corners because they get a bunch of logged hours and start thinking that nothing will ever happen to them. basically the same reason you go from driving the speed limit with your hands at 10 and 2 to driving after you've probably had 1 too many and/or texting and driving.

i just... can't imagine that few seconds where you know you're going down. sheesh.
