 Don't you just hate it when the press gets the details wrong, which seems to
 be most of the time?  I suppose Mr. Roma could have converted his "LanceAir"
 IVPT to a 2-seater, but I doubt it.  "McMinnville air controllers"?  Give me
 a break; McMinnville is a FSS.  And I'd be surprised if the NTSB knew he was
 in trouble before he landed.  Ok, ok, I'm probably being too critical.  As
 my wife likes to tell me, "Only you or another pilot would know the
 difference."  At least they didn't do a hatchet job and make it look like
 most of eastern Oregon was in danger as a result of the incident.
