The National Transportation Safety Board says in a preliminary accident report that a small commercial plane that crash-landed in Hawaii waters floated for about 25 minutes before sinking.

It makes sense. Schmidgall-Tellings co-wrote a definitive Indonesian/English dictionary: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/356313.A_Comprehensive_Indonesian_English_Dictionary
“Using an array of primary and secondary sources, from the classical language to the most recent slang, Alan M. Stevens has completed the work he and the late A. Ed. Schmidgall-Tellings began two decades ago. Tens of thousands of new entries bring meaning and understanding to changes in technology, culture, politics, and lifestyle. Included as well is the language of government, the law, and banking, with thousands of accounting, tax, and legal terms. Technical terms in all fields, including petroleum, steel, engineering, geology, chemistry, mining, medical, and shipping, make A Comprehensive Indonesian-English Dictionary of international usefulness.”
Just the kind of guy she would have known, especially given that she was teaching Bahasa Indonesian to ex-pats while in Jakarta. Her “son”, of course, she was giving ENGLISH lessons every morning, according to his own book.

Simone Feldman (née Zimmerman) was born in 1931 in far-away, rural East Prussia, as separated from the main body of Germany then as Alaska is from the Lower 48 States in the US today. (When World War II ended, the German province was split between Russia to the north and Poland to the south.) Simone grew up in a Lutheran family with socialist leanings. When the Nazis assumed power in 1933, her father lost his position as an elementary school principalyou had to be a Nazi to be a school official. The family suffered a great deal; even Simone and her older sister were persecuted by the Nazis for their fathers refusal to join the Party. Then, in 1945, just before Simones 14th birthday, she, her mom, and her pregnant 19-year-old sister fled for their lives from the oncoming Red Army. By a series of miracles they managed to escape the Russians, the fire bombing of Dresden, and other near-catastrophes, to arrive safe and sound in the resort village of Gruenwald, a suburb of Munich, in what would become the American Zone of Occupation. With legal papers showing he had been prosecuted by the Nazis, the US military appointed Simones father village school principal, and life began to get better.
Simones mom, Ruth Gertrud, also a Subud member, lived with us in the States for 19 years, until her death in 1990. After that, Simone was moved to begin writing a memoir about her growing up in Hitlers Germany, a book based on her actresss recall of dialogue spoken during the gathering darkness of her first 14 years. Yet it is a book filled with humor, hope, faith lost and regained, and above all courage in the face of fear and the ultimate triumph of good over evil. The well-known Quaker writer, Parker J. Palmer, author of A Hidden Wholeness, Let Your Life Speak, and The Active Life, among other books, wrote me this about Voices shortly before Simones death: Simones writing is very, very powerful. . . . Please congratulate her for me on a remarkable piece of work. It really needs to be published. Happily, it now is.
On September 20, 2006, my wife of 43 years, Simone, entered the Great Life. An active, loyal Subud member for 45 years, she was named a helper shortly after we were married in 1963. Opened by Michele von Royk-Lewinski in Munich in November, 1961, she faithfully carried out her duties as a helper in New Haven, Connecticut; New York City; Honolulu, Hawaii (where she co-founded the group in 1967); Planegg (Munich) and Wiesbaden, Germany; Chicago; Minneapolis-St. Paul; and, till three months before her death, again in Honolulu.

The Byrds
(no link)
This Byrd is ready to fly again
St. Petersburg Times - Sunday, January 13, 1991
The Byrds were concerned about being pigeonholed as the champions of folk-rock. “”We didn’t want to be labeled,’’ McGuinn says. “”Just like the better bands today. So that’s why we decided to incorporate jazz and (Indian) raga-oriented stuff and country, just to keep moving around.’’
It was circa 1966 when Jim McGuinn became involved with a freewheeling Indonesian religious sect called Subud and changed his name to Roger. Why Roger? Seeking a sanctioned religious name, McGuinn was told by the sect that because the letter R vibrated with his cosmic field, he should pick 10 names that begin with that letter. He included Roger on the list because it is a radio term, and it was approved. “”He could have ended up with Ravi,’’ Camilla says with a laugh. “”We lucked out.’’
http://www.goldminemag.com/article/the-byrds-roger-mcguinn-is-still-flying-high
In 1967 you became a follower of the religion Subud, and your name changed from Jim McGuinn to Roger McGuinn.
RM: I had been flirting with it from The Village. I got interested it in New York and sorta followed through in L.A. By 1967 I was into it. By 67 I was into it whole hog. Legally, I only changed my middle name. My first name is still James. If someone wrote a check to Jim McGuinn, I could still cash it (laughs). I switched my middle name. It was Joseph, and I switched it to Roger. And started using Roger as a first name. There was a Subud house in downtown L.A. on Hope Street, and The Beach Boys used to hang out there. I remember that. Then, Brian (Wilson) formed his own chapter at his house during his sandbox phase.
What we believe: Subud (pronounced SUE-bood) is an abbreviation of the Sanskrit words Susila, Budhi and Dharma, which collectively means “To follow the Will of God with the help of the Divine Power that works within and outside of a being, by way of surrendering oneself to the Will of God.” Subud is not a religion or a teaching. “Subud is a direct contact with whatever you believe is some kind of higher power in the universe, whether you want to call it God or the creative force of the universe or whatever,” said member Aliman Sears.

The opening of the new offices of Community Empowerment Services last Saturday brought that opening line to mind not because it was funny, but because it was interfaith. Jan Rumi and Aliman Sears invited a Christian, a Muslim and a Jew to take part in blessing their enterprise, which provides social services to mentally ill homeless people under a contract with the state adult mental health division. Sears said they decided on the interfaith invocation because “mental illness strikes across all boundaries — religious, cultural, economic.” Sears, a psychiatric social worker, and Rumi, an accountant, set the interfaith theme just by inviting their friends from the Subud meditation group.

Governor of the State of Hawai`i
Neil Abercrombie
April 2, 2012
HONOLULU Sister State relations between the State of Hawaii and the greater Region of Rabat-Sale-Zemmour-Zaer, Kingdom of Morocco, were formally commemorated today with the signing of a Sister State Agreement by Hawaii Governor Neil Abercrombie and Moroccos Rabat-Sale-Zemmour-Zaer Region President Bouamor Taghouan. Ambassador of the Kingdom of Morocco to the United States, His Excellency Rachad Bouhlal, was also present to witness the signing. The Sister State Agreement between Hawaii and Moroccos greater Region of Rabat-Sale-Zemmour-Zaer seeks to promote cultural and educational exchange, increased tourism and international trade, synergistic infrastructure and urban planning, and environmental and clean energy partnerships, said Governor Abercrombie. Despite being located halfway around the world, it is encouraging to recognize the many commonalities we share, which we hope will foster continued partnership and increased visitation between our two destinations. Honorary Consul of Morocco in Hawaii Jan Rumi said, My passion is to build warm, friendly, mutually beneficial relations, a sort of rainbow bridge, between Americas Aloha State and Morocco. I am thankful to the people of Hawaii and humbled by their Aloha spirit. I am also thankful to the members of the Moroccan Delegation for their dedication and commitment to reaching out to us here in the Pacific to make this rainbow bridge a reality.

"This may be unrelated but still worthy of notice... I keep looking to see if he was on the plane 2 months earlier also."Year Ends with Unexpected Deaths of Two Hawaii Leaders
'Two events shocked Hawaii nonprofits in December: the untimely and unexpected passing of Lowell Kalapa, president of the Tax Foundation of Hawaii, and the death of Loretta Fuddy, director of the state Department of Health, in an airplane crash off Molokai.
'In addition to being president of the Tax Foundation for three decades, Lowell Kalapa, 64, was a regular contributor to the online Civil Beat news website, where his last article, "Hawaii Tax Policy Should Be Equitable and Not Hinder Economic Growth," appeared on Dec. 22. He died on Dec. 30 from unknown causes. '
"Some documented passengers:
Deputy Director: Keith Y. Yamamoto
Flip Holstein, Action Fire Sprinklers Corp. President
Rosa and Jacob Key (sat behind Loretta) (Rosa is National Park Service administrator at Kalaupapa)"*pilot = Clyde Kawasaki* (Presently and was employed by Mid Pacific Air on date of accident- not Makanai Kai Air -AF vet-seems kewl though...) (Son Robert Kawasaki)
He also states that he got every passenger into a vest and out of the plane. Yamamoto says he put Fuddy's vest on though."
I wonder how they knew Kawasakiis curently with Mid Pacific Air. And I wonder why he was flying this plane, and why Makani Kai Air’s CEO said he had been flying for them for a year.
The video is—is it even necessary to say—unbelievable.
In the fact that everyone had time to abandon ship in a rather orderly and calm fashion? Or in the sheer fact that a video exists? Or something else? I am sometimes too much of a linear thinker and need nudging down a certain path. What-cha’ got on yer’ mind? Spit it out! ;0)
You said it. The fact that someone on a crashing plane would get out his camera and film the impending crash, and we don’t even hear a thing on the video. Everybody’s calmly exiting, and yet now he acts as if he was afraid he was going to die. That a video exists is unbelievable enough, but why did it take so long for it to be mentioned? I don’t see Fuddy in the video. Where is she? I don’t see 9 people. Where are they all? One would expect them to stick together. In fact, early reports said that they were all together, hanging on to each other. Wasn’t that the story? Who’s the videographer once they’re in the water? The pilot? Nothing better to do than film this for posterity?
