It is truly sad that this particular Kennedy died this way; but
What I haven't seen addressed yet is this.
Is it not possible that the reason they are all dead is because the women coerced him into flying, for their convenience, when it has been stated in the NY press that knowing he wasn't 100%, he wanted to drive?
Perhaps this Kennedy was a victim of these women, and not the other way around.
Why did the family have them all cremated without autopsies?
Afraid the'y find he was on painkillers, like Sonny Bono, when he crashed into the tree?, or worse that alcohol was involved?
It is unfortunate that this young man, who held a lot of promise, would take a chance like that, but as I said to my 11 year old daughter, " he never would have flown that nite had he had children of his own, because then, his life would have been too important to risk"
There is a certain arrogance that this family has portayed over the years, and high risk behavior has often been associated with them, but I don't believe John, Jr. was following the family tradition.
Conversely it would appear that he sucuumbed to the wishes of the women in his life, and that error in judgement cost all three their lives.
From what pilot friends tell me, who have similar planes, it appears as though he was disoriented and pulled up too hard to the right, and stalled the plane himself.
Very sad, and entirely avoidable.
