Hawaii Health Director killed in plane crash - Obama birther conspiracists jump on it - Polidicks

[img]http://cdn.grumpyelder.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Loretta-Fuddy-Pro-Birther-Hawaii-540x208.png[/img] [quote] When the lone engine of a small commercial plane failed, the nine people on board stayed calm as the aircraft glided toward the ocean and made a remarkably smooth belly landing, a survivor recounted Friday. C. Phillip Hollstein Jr., a 70-year-old Kailua man, swam a half-mile in 6-foot waves to a rugged shoreline after the crash, which killed state health Director Loretta Fuddy. The others on board suffered only minor injuries. Hollstein said the pilot, Clyde Kawasaki, expertly maneuvered the plane after the engine failed, avoiding what could have been a catastrophic impact on the water. There was a "muffled bang," he said, and "then we were a glider." "Everyone was real quiet. We hit (the water), and it was all about getting the belts off," Hollstein said. People put on life jackets and remained in the plane until it started sinking, he said. Fuddy, who gained attention after deciding to publicly release President Barack Obama's Hawaii birth certificate in 2011 to rebut claims he was not born in the United States, was clinging to the hand of her deputy, Keith Yamamoto. "He recounted how he said he helped Loretta into her life jacket and he held her hand for some time," the priest said. "They were all floating together, and she let go and there was no response from her." Fuddy and Yamamoto were on the flight after an annual visit to Kalaupapa, where the state exiled leprosy patients until 1969. The settlement is still run by the health department, though only a few former leprosy patients live there. The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the crash and probably won't have the benefit of examining the plane. The location of the wreckage, combined with wind and wave conditions, likely means it won't be recovered, NTSB spokesman Eric Weiss said. Makani Kai Air owner Richard Schuman said he has no idea why the engine failed. The plane had no previous problems, he said. John Frank, executive director of the Cessna Pilots Association, said the Grand Caravan has a reliable engine. "It's very unusual to have an inflight failure of this engine - almost unheard of, actually, unless there's some contributing factor like fuel not being available to the engine or something," Frank said.

The President of Makani Kai Air is speaking specifically to New York businessman Donald Trump. Trump tweeted about the crash off of Moloka'i. The tweet pointed out that only State Department of Health Director Loretta Fuddy died in Wednesday's crash, and that Fuddy was the state official who verified President Obama's birth certificate back in 2011. Schuman says the tweet implies that Fuddy was targeted and that the crash was part of a government cover-up. Makani Kai Air has had a stellar safety record up until now.

And the retarded monkeys start hammering away at their digital typewriters once again. Perhaps given more time or more monkeys, they'll come up with a hypothesis that actually has a basis in reality.

Foul play or not, It really sucks that the perfect safety record of this airline has been ruined by a freak incident involving one of the more reliable aircraft out there...

Donald Trump is a fucking twat

If they wanted her gone they would of done it a more quieter way. Plane sabotage is just sloppy and not guaranteed to succeed.

[QUOTE=Saxon;43179583]If they wanted her gone they would of done it a more quieter way. Plane sabotage is just sloppy and not guaranteed to succeed.[/QUOTE] But guaranteed to attract a lot of attention. Anyways, if Obama had wanted to kill her, he would've sent drones. Sarcasm aside, I can't believe birthers are still a thing.

And nobody is asking why Obama would secretly kill the one person who backed him here with proof in the first place? :v:
