The description of the board sounds plausible; it is easy to get distracted in a confusion; the beacon was being inconsistent; and they tried to do corrective turns instead of going around again. So they might well not have noticed until too late that they were losing airspeed.

Oh yeah--there was freezing rain in the area at the time of the crash also. But NTSB investigators discounted icing as a cause of the crash. Instead, they said pilot Richard Conry, 55, and co-pilot Michael Guess, 30, didn't maintain enough speed on approach to the airport.

Here is a link to an article on the final report:

NTSB report said the cause of the crash was pilot error.

I haven't studied it closely but the indicatorsmake accident look improbable -- none of the normal excuses fit the facts. No extremes of weather, flaps under control, two qualified pilots -- I winder what the hell happened?

Doug, the evidence says murder. It's the law man in me.

Kendall: looking for another conspiracy theory? Mebbe you ought to get a paper route or something, Kendall. You got too much time on your hands. I'm sure if you search the Internet, you can find a conspiracy theory to fit any occasion or event.

Yet another instance of hypocrisy.

We all know from the Republicans that Clinton offed Vince Foster even if four investigations (some independent and conducted by conservative groups) all ended saying that it was a suicide. It was in the papers for months after it happened with one well known Republican shooting watermellons in his backyard trying to prove it was a murder.

Two years after Sen. Wellstones death and I had to remember who was the topic of this post and how he died. Has the NTSB even posted a final investigation report?

I am not dreaming. I know I saw somewhere a charge that his death was planned, as was Se. Carnahan's so the republicans could take over the Senate.

To be an honest man in today's political system is tantamount to a sentence of death...and it was ever so, as a matter of fact.

I was very sad when Sen. Wellstone & wife died. I voted for him yrs back when I was up in Minnesota in the election that was one of the strangest in years. He was sometimes referred to in the press as the "Little Professor Who Could." He was a good & honest man, endorsed by educators, "green"folks, AIM (American Indian Movement), big & little folks, & after being in office for a little while, many die-hard republicans. When he first went to D.C., he was threatened by his fellows--even the Dems--that they would get rid of him/he'd never be reelected/etc.--that's when many folks realized that he had to be a really good man for them to be that intimidated.

Been listening to the hearings today, Kendall? Did you hear Rumsfeld try to push it (Sept 11, etc.) all over on the Clinton administration?

good stuff but not what I'm remembering. It was a paper on what "they" planned to do before it happened.

Can someone help me dredge up the article I read somewhere that Wellstone was murdered?
