  1. Why is the prop on the left engine feathered. Was he that quick when the gear “collapsed”?

    1. 3 incidents in 4 months... crazy dangerous.... Have you driven down the highway lately? If you know something that could alleviate the "danger" perhaps you should contact the FAA and the NTSB.

    2. Normally I'd say this is hysteria, but if you look up "Addison plane crash" on youtube, you'll find a lot of scary videos, so maybe you are on to something.
