Just finished watching the press release. Any thoughts on the LR30's
accident?

I haven't seen any factual information yet other than the fact that
the plane went off the end of the runway.

  But this is the Internet, so we can just wildly speculate right?

My wild spec, for starters,  begins with,  most likely,  that the pilots
that were not familiar with runway constraints.  Plain and simple.  Have a
better theory, at this point?

What's a runway constraint?

At the end of the runway, there is a 5000 ft drop, straight down.  How's
that for a constraint.

Gives you some time to get flying speed up...

oops sorry, I just took another look at the article and noticed the accident
happened at Columbia S.C.   I thought the accident was at Columbia Airport
in the California Sierra's.  No drop that I know of in S.C.

OK, but what I meant was that a pilot of an aircraft of that performance
level isn't really thinking "restraint". It's really more cut and dried
than that.

I have been into Columbia, California airport many times and if there
is a 5000 ft drop, they must have dug it recently.

Who plans on using what lies beyond the end of a runway?

It doesn't answer the question.

Oh, you were asking a serious question.  What about a clearway?  It's beyond
the end of the runway and used for planning purposes...no?

True, but it's part of the runway environment. The point I was trying to
make was that the word just didn't seem to fit the picture. I dont know
what word I would use in it's place. Performance limitations would
probably be closer to it, but that probably had little to do with the
accident in any case, as they were probably well within those..
I just thought "constraint" is a bit tabloid n this case.

Sounds like instant altitude.

Ok, here is a possibility that is equally supported by the current
evidence as your theory. I think all this hunting for Big Foot has Big
on the run and he's coming down from the hills and jumping in front of
airplanes.

Midnight departure?
Shades of LEX perhaps?

Possibly just one tired over worked poorly trained inexperienced
controller on duty while the high priced FAA managers chase whores and
wine and dine the neighbor's wife?

Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Both runways are longer than 8,000', crackhead.  Try again, JJ.

unlikely unless the airplane ran into another airplen, since all
controllers do is keep airplanes seperated.

Fjukkkwit.

Based on what evidence? Given the current known facts my Big Foot
theory is at least as supported by facts as your theory.

Au contraire.  JJ supports his theories with lysergic acid diethylamide.

Yep

BTW, if you're going to redirect him, please do so to alt.usenet.kooks.
They love him there. And you'll make new and interesting friends with
names like Terydactyl cupcake semen.

Jeezuz. What a stupid f.ck.

He sees FAA managers in his cheerios.
While remaining a leech on the gov't dole.

ooh..what's that?
the FAA caused another earthquake.

oooo.. ants in the kitchen?
AAAGH the FAA put ants in my house!!!

At least the slug seems to have stopped slobbering his favorite word
"sycophant".

for now.
