Plane crash?

Things that are not part of politics happening presently and how we approach or address it as Anabaptists.

Someone sent us this information.
The three killed were Rod Martin, Dawayne Weaver, Wes Martin
Rod and Dawayne were from Blueball Mennonite Church, Wes was from Calvary Fellowship Mennonite Church.
They were flying from Fresh Start Training Center to Myerstown PA.
They crashed just south of Morgantown WV., in a thunderstorm.
Rod, the pilot was married and was about 50 years old.

Sympathies for all those involved.

It isn’t a news article at all, it’s a scam website. There’s been an uptick recently of websites that have an AI write a word salad like this that try to make as many word combinations as possible to take over Google search results. You click the link and try to make sense of it and by the time you’ve realized it says nothing they’ve managed to collect some advertising money, your tracking information, and maybe even mined some bitcoin. I don’t know that there much you can do to combat it except to run with an adblocker and maybe NoScript. The nature of the whole thing is pretty shady already, but if they have their AI scanning for and writing “articles” about the recently deceased, you know you’re dealing with some pretty low scum.

The last I heard the FAA hasn't released the bodies and won't until a full investigation is completed.

Umm the FAA does not investigate airplane crashes. That is the duty of the NTSB. But complete silence from government accident investigations is quit normal. Likely we will get a completed report from NTSB in about 2 years. But we can likely draw some conclusions from looking at their adsb track and the radar at the time of the accident. They were south of a line of thunderstorms, which was between them and their destination, they saw what looked like a gap between 2 cells and attempted to go between. Thunderstorms tend to be very unpredictable, quite possibly he had done things like this before without any problems...

Very sad, praying for the family as they deal with their loss. It's accidents like that make me keep me awake at night... :cry:

I am sorry if my info was incorrect. Let's just say the people who investigate plane crashes have not released the bodies as of last weekend.
