The weather reported by the FAA says it was 2000 foot overcast and 10 miles
visibility-- not zero/ zero.

To Jeff Edwards and other members of the list:

While the FAA reports that the ceiling was 2000 foot overcast and 10 miles
visibility, the witnesses on the field, including the paramedic who was
first on the scene and members of the sheriff's department, indicate that
the ceilings were lower, in the range of 1000 feet.  This is consistent with
the ATC tapes which showed the plane at 1000 feet when Mr. Comeault
announced that he had broken out of the clouds and had the field in site.
Jesup is a non-towered airport and the FAA data is based upon an automated
weather system.  Those of us who fly know how incredibly reliable those
weather systems are.....
