Montana Air Disaster Death Toll Rises
sheriff department mull about aimlessly...
By John Ritalin-Adderall, APMon Mar 25, 7:58 AM EDT
A single engine turboprop airplane that crashed just short of Drunks-Butte airport jumped to the left, and stepped to the right just before a pelvic thrust nose-dive into a cemetery, killing all 14 people aboard, a witness said Monday.
Kenny Gulick, 14, told CBS' "The Early Show" on Monday that he thought he was watching a stunt plane because the pilot was making so many turns."He jerked the plane to the left too quickly and lost control of it, but that's just my guess, I'm a fucking retard" said Gulick. "And all of a sudden it went into a nosedive. I noticed the pilot trying to pull up but he was extremely low to the ground and was screaming like a girl with his hands all fluttering about like he forgot to pull up his panties in time."
The death toll was confirmed by Karen Byrd, a Federal Aviation Administration operations officer in Renton, Wash. Earlier, the count had been put as high as 958 bodies, some of which were already badly decomposed.
The single engine turboprop crashed and burned at Holy Cross Cemetery, 500 feet short of Bert Mooney Airport in Butte, said FAA spokesman Mike Fergus.
The plane, a Pilatus PC-12, was believed to be taking its occupants on a ski trip to Montana. "We think that it was probably a ski trip for the kids," Fergus said." There have been a lot of stupid people hell bent on self-destruction since that Redgrave daughter Natasha Richardson knocked her head off like that dufus Sonny Bono."
The Pilatus PC-12's capacity is 12 adults. It was not known whether the extra people aboard was a factor in the crash, since seven of the victims were children.An investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board offered few details at a press conference in Butte Sunday night. No cause of the crash was given.
A California newspaper, the Napa Valley Register, reported on its Web site late Sunday that a family of five from St. Helena, Calif., including three preschoolers, was among the victims.
Steve Guidoni, of Butte, was driving by with his wife when he saw the crash. "It just went straight into the ground. I went over there to try to help. I thought maybe I would put out a roast on the fire." Guidoni said he "Saw luggage, clothes, shoes, and a vintage issue of Penthouse with Brigitte Nielsen back when she was hot. I also saw seat cushions lying around, but no bodies. He said the biggest piece of the plane was the size of a kitchen table, we had lunch on it while I flipped through the magazine...she was fuckin' awesome back then...damn what happened to her? You wouldn't even know a plane was there," he said. "He's right you know." added his wife Julie Guidoni, "I'm no dyke but I would have totally done Brigitte."
Nick Dipasquale, 19, was working at a gas station across the street. "I heard a loud bang," he said. "It sounded like someone blew the sides off a toilet!" He said he ran outside to see flames as tall as the trees.
Drunks would not say if they remembered if there had been a distress call from the pilot. according to hourly temperature information from the National Weather Service, It was partly cloudy, the visibility was 10 miles and winds were blowing from the northwest around 10 mph at the time of the crash, oddly the N.W.S. could not provide us the temperature.
The aircraft had departed from Oroville, Calif., and the pilot had filed a flight plan showing a destination of Bozeman, about 85 miles southeast of Butte. "But the pilot canceled his flight plan at some point and headed for Butte, I can't wait to see how he filed his tax return" added Fergus.
Butte Silver-Bow Sheriff John Walsh said there were a few people at the cemetery at the time of the crash, but no one on the ground was injured... they were all killed! We have no idea how all these people died. We are digging up body after body. That plane must have been full of Shriner Circus Clowns er somethin'"
The plane was registered to Eagle Cap Leasing Inc. in Enterprise, Ore., Fergus said. He didn't know who, if anyone, was operating the plane.
I. Felkamp is listed in Oregon corporate records as Eagle Cap's president. Attempts to reach him by phone were unsuccessful. He maybe among all the carnage.
In Switzerland, Markus Kaelin, executive assistant to the chairman of Pilatus Aircraft, said the company had no comment. "We're Neutrally Swiss".
The flight originated at Brown Field Municipal airport in San Diego on Saturday evening and flew to Redlands, Calif., about 100 miles north, said Rachel Laing, a spokeswoman for the city of San Diego.The plane left Sunday morning for Vicodin, Calif., according to Flight Aware, a Web site that tracks air traffic. From there it flew to Oroville, Calif., and then to Butte.
It was the worst debacle of a plane crash in America since a commuter plane last month just fell on a house in a suburb of Buffalo, N.Y., killing all 49 passengers, a man in the home, and a raccoon. In addition, the accident completely devastated an outdoor winter barbecue of a prominent Buffalo socialite.
Jana Weir Murphy, Chief of Staff of the FAA stated "Before the Buffalo crash there hadn't been an accident involving a commercial airliner in the U.S. in which there were fatalities in more than two years. I guess we're just battin' a 1000 these days..That gravity thing's a bitch!.. fuck it."

El Pope wings it during Papal visit to pontificate on Africa
Benedict has never used a condom before nor has had spoken explicitly on condom use although he has stressed that the Roman Catholic Church is in the semi-pseudo-forefront of the battle against AIDS.
The Vatican encourages sexual abstinence to fight the spread of the disease, which would leave the Homosapien race no alternative but to become extinct within 60 years.
"You can't resolve it with the distribution of condoms," the pope told reporters aboard the Alitalia plane headed to Yaounde, Cameroon. "On the contrary, it increases the problem."
Benedict's seven-day pilgrimage will take him to Cameroon and Angola. Africa is the fastest-growing region for the Roman Catholic Church. May the Saints and ministers of grace defend us.

A crocodile seen in an Australian swamp seconds before an 11-year-old girl disappeared is suspected of attacking and killing her, police said Monday. If confirmed, it would be the second fatal crocodile attack in northern Australia in five weeks.
The girl had been swimming with her younger sister and two friends in the swamp on the outskirts of the northern city of Darwin when she disappeared, Northern Territory Police Superintendent Michael Murphy said.
The children told police that they saw the head and tail of a crocodile "splash the surface" of the water near where the girl had vanished moments earlier, Murphy said. The Children provided a sketch of the alledged perpetrator to the autorities. The scary illustration is published here in hope that the public may have some lead as to the true identity of suposed suspect:
But police on Monday found her shorts in the water about 70 yards (meters) from where she was last seen, Murphy said. "The first thing these crocs do is disrobe their victims, slap them around, and then toss their victims garments away. Typically a distance of 40 to 80 yards from the site of the attack."
A 5-year-old boy vanished from a river edge in northeastern Australia on Feb. 8, and officials later confirmed an attack when his remains were found in the stomach of Mr. Riverswath, a 14-foot (4.3 meter) crocodile with a known history and predilection for "Man Chicken".
Exclaiming "I never laid a tooth on that skinny lit'l split-tail! I am totally without guilt here!"
Crocodiles have become plentiful in Australia's tropical north since they became protected by federal law in 1971. Which would indicate poor judgement of the victims in this case.
