At some point, Al Wick posted this link somewhere, and the Cozygirls 
have reposted it on the Canard listserv..

It is the story of a homebuilder who essentially (and through ignorance) 
committed suicide in an airplane. And it wasn't for a lack of concerned 
friends or vendors. I cringed repeatedly through the factual finding 
from the NTSB.

Poor workmanship, lack of attention to detail, inability to 
read/follow/understand directions/manuals and an "end justifies the 
means" attitude all formed a perfect storm. I give thanks that if he was 
inevitably doomed, he went out by himself the day before he was going to 
tote a planeload of family to Boston.

Read.

Learn.

Don't go there..
