Well another two aircraft have come down.
A case of error by the pilot towing a glider?

I have to say I've not seen this amount of airplane incidents in such a short space of time before.
How many in the last two weeks?

Something brought about by weather conditions,pilot error or by something else?

Having to go out,reply when I can.Maybe via mobile.

Was the glider still connected to the plane by the tow rope, and which of the pilots has the ability to cut the rope? If it's the pilot of the plane who has that ability perhaps he lost control his plane and dragged the glider into the ground with him?

There is really nothing to go on there apart from 2 aircraft, one of them is a glider.

Why are you saying there have been so many incidents in the last 2 weeks?

What goes up must come down, sometime traumatically.
I personally don't think there's any conspiracy here.

Maybe not a conspiracy as such but with certain differences in weather conditions these days,is that a factor we,re not told of?

At least your not claiming they were hit by a rotating triangular UFO, or targeted by HAARP.

I.m open minded but not to those ideas.Someone show evidence of such things,then I may entertain the idea.

Looking at the report I see the aircraft are used for 'air experience flights' as well as pilot training.

Now I'm worried that some more air cadets are involved... It's a slim chance as the glider pilot (single) parachuted to safety... An air experience flight would defiantly have 2 people in an aircraft.

The other 2 (who died?) see to be in the powered craft.

The air experience flights are great for the kids - I know I clocked up some hours getting real experienced pilots to scare the wits outta me... There was that other crash where the air cadets died some while ago, it would be a shame to see kids loose out on the flights.

I attempt to refer people to this information site, when these questions arise.

www.ntsb.gov...

The NTSB is, of course, a United States-based group, but their data files will include US-registered aircraft, even if on foreign soil.

Remember, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

You can also, if you wish, investigate other nations' records.

For instance: www.caa.govt.nz...


There are many more......

Oh! This just tears my heart out!!

Another tragic accident. No conspiracies at work (sorry, vampires!).

Damn it...

Mike Blee, 62, and an air cadet who has yet to be formally named, were killed during the flight.

sky news

I said I had a horrible feeling there might be an aircadet involved - that's very sad, a typical cadet will be between 13 and 17 years old.
