It would have made no difference except maybe to recover the bodies a little more quickly. As it is, it took over 4 days (and nights) of searching to find them...a few hours would not have mattered. Having said that, I kind of agree with you and I'm sure everyone will be searching for someone else to blame besides little John's stupidity. After all, the precious Kennedys can do no wrong. And flying at night in marginal skies with little experience while carrying two passengers could NEVER qualify as stupid. Besides, everyone knows that Hillary had him bumped off because he was considering running for the NY Senate seat in 2000. ;-) Regards, Joel "Eagle" Mundt 32nd VFS Arctic Knights
