  That would explain why Curt Lewis went to Windy City. We may see some interest here as well.

  The NTSB show no such report of any fatalities at 44C also known as Beloit. Only one incident in 2018 a 1972 Piper Lance so Glider nothing with the Op’s shows up.

    Greg – thanks for checking that out. I was wondering about that since we’ve not heard about any fatalities at Beloit.

  I think they were referring to a few accidents that happened at other commercial operations which contributed to a surge in insurance premiums for everyone. It will be interesting to see if any other commercial sites are impacted and if it will affect tow & rental prices.

  Yes, I agree that this is not about accidents at Beloit but the overall accident rate in soaring. Of the soaring accidents in the last 1-3 years, have more happened at commercial operations? I think that I will raise this point on the RAS netnews group and see what the pundits say.
