Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I haven't seen this on the board yet so I thought it needed to be brought up. What a shame.

A plane owned by Hendrick Motorsports crashed Sunday on its way to Martinsville, killing all 10 people aboard. The dead included four relatives of team owner Rick Hendrick, including his son Ricky and brother John.

it appears martinsville va. airport is so small it has no control tower and the fog was so bad that plane never had a chance as it crashed into bull mountain. i saw the list of the 10 who died, team owner rick hendricks own son, his brother and his 2 daughters to name a few. it brought a tear to my eye and made me forget about my problems for a moment as my life goes on. prayers to all!
