Aero-News: Quote of the Day

ANN's Quote of the Day usually derives from current news, though we reserve the right to pick quotes out of history that have a bearing on the day's events and issues.

Reader suggestions and comments are welcome... and if particularly thought provoking or poignant, may themselves become future Quotes of the Day. Let us hear from you, folks!

Aero-News Quote of the Day

"Despite being warned not to, Kyle Robinson knowingly risked flying a small canopy with a reputation for being difficult and dangerous to handle. He lost control of it and died in a bad landing. To imply that Kapowsin Air Sports or the Farrington family is somehow to blame for Robinson's death is irresponsible."

Source: Journalist Mark Harju, a contributor to Skydiving magazine, summing up his objections to an errant news report by KIRO-TV, in Seattle.
