Why is it acceptable to say "balls" in Spanish but not in English >>
Good question and why does one often hear `made a balls up` in normal
conversation without a thought being given to its origins.

Many around here are putting on accordion doors - the panel section
has a frame with smoked corrugated fiberglass panels and rides on a
top and bottom track. This makes them light and easy to move. They
seem to be tough and hold up.

In case they update the website, here is a cut / pate of one of the
articles:
Authorities in Elmore County say two brothers from Autauga County were
killed when their ultralight plane crashed Monday evening around
dusk just off Mercer Road in the town of Elmore.
52-year-old John Brashears and his brother 49-year-old Paul were
identified as the victims. WSFA's Bryan Henry says he's been told one
of the two men aboard the aircraft was an "experienced pilot."
The plane took off from the Wetumpka Airport shortly after 5 p.m. Monday.
It flew for about 2 miles when something went terribly wrong and
investigators still don't know why.
Jessica Lewis didn't see the plane, but her husband did. According to
Mrs. Lewis, her husband said "that they saw it in the air. It flew
over. They saw it when it flew over and it was fine. Just a second
after that, they heard a wierd noise and looked up and saw the aircraft
just falling down, a nose dive, and they actually heard it hit. It
sounded like something broke. That's the noise they heard. You just
never think...that something is going to happen like this."
Light planes fly out of the Wetumpka Airport all the time, sometimes 3-4
times a week. The FAA does not require pilots to pass a written or
flight test before taking to the sky in an ultralight.
However, most manufacturers and sellers offerand require buyers to
undergo aminimum training.

The wreckage has been recovered and the airport manager said that one of the
leading edges was broken. Witnesses on the ground reported hearing a loud
bang. That would have been the leading edge breaking. That's the same sound we
heard when John's Hauck's FireStar went in at Addison. Why it broke, we'll
probably never know.
I didn't know John very well, had only met him a few of times. But he
appeared to be a competent pilot. Appeared to be the typical ultralight pilot,
always smiling. The trike was an old one. He had bought it new.
Wish I had gotten to know him better. We'd talked about setting my trike up
and flying it. He'll be missed by everyone at the airport even if they didn't
know him. The fact that he had his brother with him makes it doubly bad.
Ya'll be careful.

My bad. Meant to say that it wasn't an old one.

Another reminder that a BRS is still the one thing that can keep the unforeseen
and unexpected from ruining one's day, as well as one's families.

Hi Ray/Gang:
That is very true, provided one trains themselves to use it when an
emergency situation arises. The trike was equipped with a canister
type BRS ballistic recovery system. The handle was never pulled. I
do not know why the pilot did not activate the BRS. Many times people
have died with recovery systems that were never used. One must train
themselves to use the recovery system. It has to be more than a
mental process. One must got through the process while sitting in the
cockpit. Witnesses said the aircraft spun all the way to the ground
after the loud bang was heard. Pilot may not have been able to
overcome centrifugal force to grasp and pull the deployment handle.
No one will ever know.
Like Bill G, I met the two brothers that died yesterday, only a short
time before we flew to the Kolb Homecoming. Am very sorry they were
killed. Would like to have gotten to know them both better.
Take care,
john h
