I want to get to that comfort zone where people feel comfortable again, without any difficulty flying. |
No indication at all of any problems in the first flight, and nothing, as I say, until 7:11 (p.m.) that we heard of anything. |
No, it was not new but it was in good condition, rarely used. |
Rather than rush through with the inspection, to get the planes up right away faster, that they should take their time carefully. |
That means it was not mechanical. It was not pilot error. And It was nothing that they could determine, other than, I guess, an act of God. |
They want aircraft checked. It's a mechanical issue, they want to make sure the equipment is good. |
They want to make sure everything is how they would like to see it. |
We are saddened and surprised by this news. Ron was an exceptional friend and pilot who flew a great many successful missions. We still miss him dearly. |
You're dealing with human frailty, people are nervous, I don't blame them. And we're trying basically to accommodate their desires. |
