A few days ago a military jet crashed into a San Diego, CA area home killing 2 baby girls, their mother and their grandmother. In stark contrast to the New York family who sued Wal-Mart, the man who lost his family in San Diego says he feels no ill will towards the pilot who bailed out of the plane prior to impact.

That is a very big hearted statement Paul, in a time when people sue for little good reason a statement like that warms the heart. I also feel for his tragic loss.

i watched this news break on tv. very sad, the pilot must feel terrible
i remember a similar even happening in britain. the pilots managed to steer the fighter away from a village and crashed in a field, killing them both. From what i understand civilian damage was unavoidable in this case, it seems loke it was a built up area.

Rob, that was next door but one to my accountant!! It was in Farnborough Kent right?
The pilot could have landed in a field but he saw children playing football so he raised the plane and ended up in the close.
The news said the people who saw the crash were really shaken as they coul see the peoples faces in the craft full of fright
All this suffering...sigh
Thanks God for Music and good times to brighten the world
