Anyone else really enjoy watching these? I think they are well done, and even my non-pilot girlfriend likes watching them (I find it funny that she yells at the TV while watching, "You idiot! Why would you fly like that!" etc...maybe I can count on her to yell at me if I fly with my head up my a$$).

I was watching this one today and realized that I had flown the accident aircraft before:


I checked my log, and I last rented it when I was between ownership on 2/26/98 (about 14 years before the crash).

There is also a POA discussion about this particular crash here:

I remember hearing about that accident the day it happened. The guy had just received his certificate not long before if I recall correctly.
 
I was not at the shop that day. It happened right in front of our hangar.

Which hangar, or shop, is that? (I have always rented from PFS/Waterford Aviation and I have friends there. Seems like it was right there according to the video).

I was told, at lunch today, the incident with 9926Q is under investigation by someone working for an attorney. Someone looking for money?
