From 911Encyclopedia:
Senator Paul Wellstone died in an airplane accident in Minnesota on October 25th, 2002, one week before the house election in 2002. http://www.startribune.com/stories/1752/3430473.html The lawyers who successfully handled Minnesota's landmark lawsuit against the tobacco industry have begun investigating the plane crash that killed Sen. Paul Wellstone. Sam Kaplan, legal adviser to Mark and David Wellstone, confirmed ... that Mike Ciresi and Roberta Walburn have been retained by the Wellstone family to consider possible legal action in connection with the Oct. 25 charter airplane crash in Eveleth that killed wife Sheila Wellstone, daughter Marcia Markuson, a DFL Party official, two Wellstone campaign workers and the plane's two pilots. Richard Conry, a convicted felon who exaggerated his flying experience when he was hired in April 2001, was the chief pilot on the flight that killed Wellstone, the two pilots and five others.
Compare: 1) The Top 5 oddities of that case: 1. There were no calls
from the pilot as to any mechanical trouble. 2. Twin engine planes can
fly on one engine. 4. Planes with no power can 'crash' land with
survivors. 5. Weather is reported as 5 miles visibility, drizzle and
light snow, no storms or severe weather. 5. Pilots were
'experienced'. 2) VoxNyc.com about Wellstone's death:

link?: The machine was built by Raytheon. 4) The Weather lie: Weather
radar shows Deluth clear of any storm activity.

5) The
2MuchBS- analysis (Ex-DU): "...These stories of massive chunks of ice
weighting the plane down are pure garbage. I have been part of many
studies on the problem. What most don't realize is that ice "may" form
a smooth new boundary, but as the thickness of the airfoil section
increases due to ice, the lift production increases. I have read many
posts claiming that when ice forms on a wing the plane just falls out
of the sky, ABSOLUTELY false. What "could" be possible is a collection
of ice that impedes control movement, but this should not force a
small plane to ditch into the woods. As a matter of fact most pilots
would radio in and explain the situation, and inform of an increased
landing velocity, as flaps "could" possibly not be deployed. The
chances that large ice formation would limit movement of all control
surfaces at precisely the same moment are null. Keep in mind they all
operate in a seperate pressure gradient from one another. Apparently
the pilot squawked, "all is well" just a few miles out. Unless they
were flying in New York where physics appear quite different from the
rest of the world, there is no way they could have developed control
limitation in such a narrow space of time, through ice buildup, within
the atmosphere they were flying. And as to the weight problem, I
assume they had burned off fuel volumes. Most aircraft do, unless in
New York or course. The plane could carry ice with no problem. If the
craft had become heavy and lazy the pilots would have let someone
know. I am curious how many other planes went down in that area?
Answer: none... ...(to claim, that) you can build ice over an airfoil
at 70 degrees F. ... (is) such a ridiculous spin..." (See 2muchbs)
6) Paul Wellstone's last interview with ABC News
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/wnt/DailyNews/wellstone_interview021025.html
http://www.truthout.org/docs_02/10.27A.Wellstone.intv.htm Cochran: You
voted against the president. There are about half a dozen really close
races and the White House is interested in all of those because of
control of the Senate. Given the fact that you voted against the
president, do you think this race is particularly meaningful to the
White House? Wellstone: I think the race is definitely particularly
meaningful to the White House. I think the president has been here
four times, the vice president has been here once and Karl Rove is
coming out this weekend and they're saying the president might come
back again. But look, maybe the president will come campaign for
me. That could happen -- you never know.
7) McDonnell-Douglas-Professor: On December 17th, 2002, the NTSB said specialists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo., are working with the safety board to determine the icing conditions that existed along the flight's route. Paul Czysz, professor emeritus of aerospace engineering at St. Louis University, said it only takes an eighth of an inch of ice on the wing's leading edge to disrupt the flow of air. That can cause the wing to lose its lift and the plane to suddenly change course. Paul A. Czysz, Professor Emeritus MDC Fellow, is a military hardliner. Formerly McDonnell-Douglas and ex-security director at Northwest Airlines, he analysed the 2000-Osprey crashes (quoted in the April 19, 2001 USA Today about problems with the military's V-22 Osprey program. The Osprey was involved in two fatal crashes in 2000) http://www.slu.edu/colleges/parks/departments/AeroAndMech/faculty/f_czysz.htm Other articles on Wellstone: Freedom Calling By Marc Ash http://www.truthout.org/docs_02/10.29A.ma.freedom.htm "Murder perpetrated by a ruthless regime capable?"
