<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]--> Very preliminary and filled with the usual "chase-any-angle" trash and some  inaccuracies.  

  

 I knew Ray and will miss him greatly.

Actually, that is a pretty well written story. I'm amazed at this line...



"William Standing, an inspector with the FAA's Philadelphia office, said Monday that it appeared almost certain Blondin's engine did not factor into the crash."



I don't think I've ever seen an FAA official say something like that this soon after an accident. Especially if their name is going to be used.

Amazingly enough I have  been told other information, and your right no

FAA officer would ever state such a comment. They put such a gag on

things so fast it is amazing that they say anything, most times they

don't. Also IF I read the story correctly it seemed to have been written

by two different styles, one knowledgeable of the homebuilt market and

one who just didn't have a clue. I found the comments at the bottom in

response to the story very disturbing though.



Plus can anyone tell me what Nadar has to do with this? I don't remember

him ever commenting about the engine design or power. Didn't he just

lose it on the cars design?



I knew Ray from past conversations, I considered him articulate and

knowledgeable, I enjoyed talking to him over the years. My condolences

to his family.

No Nader never, to my knowledge, ever had any issue with the engine.



As far as the comments to the story go, 2 out of 3 are morons. That pretty much falls in line with the moron ratio I've seen during my 45 years on the planet.

This one has a familiar ring to it as we lost a test pilot several years 

ago in a similarly described accident.  The strongest argument for 

having a prop out of pitch to the extent

that it may have been unable to climb out.  Too much either way would 

put you in difficulty without having any engine problems.

Sad indeed,
