#4  This reminds me of the two who got caught on phone recorder. The one did a dip in the water. I hope nothing happened to them. I am told getting close to the water gives more resistance for lift. Lost some control before dip. I know these are expensive units but these people are highly trained and must push to the limit just as a Navy Seal must. Hot dog or skilled I'll take them over Saddam's Air Force(show and don't damage the goods).
