Anyone have any poop on the queen air crash, that occured last Sun
at the Skydiving Center of Greater D.C.?  I was speaking to a friend,
and well known skydiver in that area that relayed the info to me,
butwas unsure of some details.      

The info that I have, is that one of the engines went out on takeoff.
Apparently tried to land in someones backyard, and approx 1 min + the
damn thing blew.  No deaths, however some injuries were reported, infact,
to of my former jump mates are still licking wounds.
