Default Re: Fallen Angel

Bill,

Interesting point of view. I would tend to agree that the
instinct to survive outweighs the disire to stear clear of
a "bad crash". I don't think I could stay with the plane
all the way in to save others. Hope that doesn't make me
a bad person.

A close friend of mine was a long time fighter pilot and
he told me many times that the guys that think about it
too long end up dead. He personally punched out three
times in his career. I would most likely have done the
same.

Do you think the investigators will ever know the real
reason this Blue Angel pilot didn't punch out?

Steve
