Well said Bill. Haven't flown any of the Falcons (unfortunately) but am Type rated in the Lear.
Tragic and praying for all victims But as long as houses are built with plywood and matchsticks this will repeat itself again and again, the price of these is like if they were built with steel!!
There aren't many types of construction that can withstand an EF-3 tornado.
Out in Oklahoma, it’s recommended that people get below ground or have a well fortified safe room
As a Nashville resident, the damage from this tornado is on par with the outbreak of tornadoes on 16 April 1998. It has been horrific. This tornado cut a half mile wide swath of destruction, and was on the ground for over 50 miles.
Our Electric power company, Nashville Electric service posted a statistic this week - April 1998 tornadoes broke 200 power poles. Monday's tornado destroyed nearly 700.
John C. Tune Airport (JWN) just west of downtown was heavily damaged, estimated costs over $90 million to restore it to fully operational status. And that does not include damaged and destroyed aircraft.
Many charitable organizations would be glad to accept donations if you would like to help. I personally am working with Operation BBQ Relief www.operationbbqrelief.org, where we prepare and distribute hot meals to those affected by the storm and first responders.
Also the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee is a great resource for distributing donations.
