Glad to hear you are okay, Jack. I know first-hand how you feel. About four years ago, a four-passenger Cessna crashed in our condo complex in Myrtle Beach, landing about 75 yards from my wife and our friend's 3 year old son (she was taking him for a walk to feed the ducks). The plane landed in an open area between buildings (about 50 yards from our building). All four passengers were killed, and a gentleman walking his dog about 25 yards from my wife was hit by debris and later passed away from his injuries. Fortunately, my wife and our friend's son were unharmed physically.
The sight of that burning plane and passengers is forever etched in my mind. We were flying back home to Michigan later that night, and it was difficult for both my wife and me to get on a plane that night.
