Believe it or not, there are plenty of one-eyed pilots flying. I haven't looked for sure but on another forum saw a post that there is a six month waiting period to enable the brain to get used to the mono vision. An poster on the same site claiming to be an airline pilot said he knew of at least one one-eyed airline pilot flying passengers.

My personal take on this, having read some eye witness reports, is that he fixated on the Cub and failed to manage the energy on his own jet. The airplane definitely looks likes it's in a post-stall wing drop at impact. Interestingly, the photos I looked at show little or no control deflections with aileron or rudder to correct. Might just be my photo analysis skills, though. Not sure he had the altitude to make a differnece anyway. Eyewitness reports also say they heard no power increase prior to the crash. Also that the engines continued to run for several minutes following impact (until secured by the rescue folks), so probably not an engine failure. Tough motors though, cause you know they ate a lot of debris in the crash. Fuel system stayed intact too, even with the fuselage broken.

Pilot error plain and simple. Just happy no one on the ground got hurt.

Funding issues.... I was hoping to be back this year, but a couple of big unexpected bills sidelined me.
