Subject: | Not good news on VH-LST c/n 3111 |
--> Commander-List message posted by: Russell Legg <rlegg@austarnet.com.au>
G'day All,
The crash yesterday of 500S VH-LST doesn't have a good feel about it.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) are treating the Aero
Commander LST accident as a Major Investigation and their investigators will
be on site for another 4 full days at least.
The strong suggestion is structural failure in flight, because the tail
section is some distance from the rest of the wreckage.
We must all hope like hell that this failure is kept in perspective by "the
industry".
Cheers
Russell

Subject: EX Rockwell International Commander Training Instructor
I was in your website today and it brought back a lot of good memories back=20when
I was the Factory Customer Training Instructor in all the Piston and Turboprop
Commander Twins. Our department then was staffed with myself, Lee Lindo and
Lloyd Ferris, at the factory in Bethany Oklahoma. Years 1967-1969. I was fortunate
to get checked out and teach both flight and ground training=20to Commander
Twin customer owners and pilots from all over the world.When the factory
was sold to Alan Paulson, our training department was absorbed by=20Flight Safety
International. I left the company just before the takeover and went to work
as Corporate Chief Pilot for a handful of major oil and cattle companies that
were operating 690B's, and 980's. I have 12,200 hours as a pilot of which 5,000
plus are in Turbine commanders. I operated as single pilot all over the US,
Mexico and the Caribbean. After my commander years I flew as an airline captain
in DH-6's and then went on to serve in the FAA as an Aviation Safety Inspector
Operations for both Air Carrier and General Aviation. I retired from the
FAA in 2000. I came to Seattle to work for Flight Safety Boeing Senior Manager
for FAA Regulatory Affairs in Renton, WA. I left=20the company after 3 years
with them when FSI sold out to Boeing. I presently reside in Langley, WA. I miss
flying the commanders. I consider the entire=20line to be one of the best
aircraft ever designed. Should you or your company have any job opportunities
that I could contribute my expertise, please give me a call or email. Best regards,
