http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/71809 ... lane-crash

so, a pilot activated the wheel brakes during take off, slowing it down. then he yanked back on the yoke too much, which caused a stall.

very sad.

Yep...I'm surprised nobody posted this already, it's at least a few weeks old.

Either way - one of the dangers of flying old equipment.

well, the pilots were used to a different set up, and the plane was actually a newer set up. the plane wasnt that old.

I also heard the pilot was taking prescribed medication that might have lead to the crash.

Put the blame on the company for not properly training those pilots.

Pilot error caused it, but had they been trained properly.

the plane wasnt even at half its airlife.... it wasnt an old plane. most planes in the US are probably well older.

what caused the crash was the pilots were used to a different pedal set up, and the plane they were flying had a new pedal set up.
