The Drudge Report had a video link to footage of the crash but it led to a video report on the Galaxys acquisition of the Beckham guy.

Van Nuys is the busiest general aviation airport in the nation, with an average of nearly 500,000 takeoffs and landings annually. ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Apparently, times change. Last thing I heard, John Wayne/Orange County was the nation's busiest GA airport. I used to enjoy flying into there on Golden West's Twin Otter -- instead of driving over from LAX when I was speaking at electronics conferences in Anaheim...
Always enjoyed the "jump" takeoff from LAX and the great view as we flew down the coast -- right over the moored Queen and the hangar for the Spruce Goose...

The plane's left-hand nose baggage door was "wide open" as it took off, and the jet was veering side-to-side at a low speed I hate it when that happens.
Is there a special Darwin Award category for pilots?
