Narrative:
The day before the accident the aircraft was flown from Miami, Florida, to Chicago, with stops at St. Petersburg and Covington. On the leg between Covington and Chicago, malfunctioning of the left engine was experienced. This trouble manifested itself by intermittent misfiring, and was corrected by the use of full-rich mixture. At Chicago the aircraft was refueled late in the evening of the same day, September 15, and maintenance work on the left engine was performed by Butler aviation personnel on the following morning. The flight was to be over the reverse route and with the same stops as had been made on the previous day. The aircraft was cleared to take off on runway 31L. According to the weight and balance manifest, the take-off weight was the maximum allowable (45,000 pounds). However, in fact the authorized gross weight was exceeded by approximately 1,960 pounds. The C-46 became airborne at a speed of about 100 or 105 mph, and simultaneously the left engine started misfiring. The landing gear was raised. Then the left engine started backfiring. The captain placed the left mixture control in the full-rich position. The did not stop the misfiring, and he then turned off the left engine's right magneto. The engine continued to fire erratically, the captain put the magneto switch back on both magnetos, the engine then lost all power, and its propeller was feathered. The aircraft started a slight turn to the left. The aircraft climbed slowly on its right engine to an attitude estimated at from 150 to 200 feet. The aircraft continued to turn gradually to the left and altitude was being lost. Ahead the captain saw a sizable stretch of open land and decided to crash land. He cut the power on the right engine, nosed the aircraft down, quickly flared it out, and landed exceptionally hard with landing gear and flaps retracted. The severity of contact broke both engines completely free of their mounts. The aircraft rode over both engines, bounced several times and slid to a stop.
PROBABLE CAUSE: "The Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the poor technique used by the pilot in taking off at too low an air speed to maintain single engine flight, followed by a critical loss of power from the left engine, and subsequently a partial loss of power from the right engine, conditions which were aggravated by the effects of the overload."

Kel wanted to put in a 6' by 9' (patio? landing?) at the bottom of the stairs by our front door. We headed to the home improvement store and picked out these nice concrete pavers.
I had a mental lapse and read the sign as saying that each paver was 0.75 sq. ft. (versus what it actual said that there was 0.75 of a paver per sq. ft.) and paid for 72 pavers. They only had 60 in stock and loaded the pallet on my poor 1/2 ton pickup. Along with all of the wood that I bought for my hop arbor and ten bags of paver sand...
The truck was riding VERY low. The pallet of pavers was NOT strapped into the truck. We drove home very slowly and got extremely nervous on a couple of the hills...
As we unloaded the pavers, I came to my senses and realized that, since each paver was clearly longer than 1' per side, than we couldn't POSSIBLY need more pavers than the number of square feet...
I took 25 back to the store and my truck was STILL riding very low...

Santiago, Chile: Through volunteering, the core expertise of corporations can be turned to new uses. In the aftermath of natural disasters, the flood of international aid can overload airports and prevent help from getting to where it is needed. In partnership with UN OCHA, global logistics company Deutsche Post DHL deploys special volunteer Disaster Response Teams to assist overloaded local airports manage the logistics of crisis, for example after the Chile earthquake of 2010.

Is it possible for a dog to have too much fun?! It was awesome to see him enjoying himself so much! I just shot one pic here and was putting my phone away when he reached the end of his leash at full speed and the hand that had the leash also had the phone. It flew pretty good but seems to be working ok...
