Re:Wind Shear (Score 1)

I too as a private pilot have to agree that wind shear although very real and very deadly is also very rare. But we have to realize that this guy was essentially in a rocket with wings (and the wings are really only used as fins for drag stabilization during the launch proceedure). This thing has no stall speed (at least not on this planet). I would say that the "wind shear" explanation is a quick way to ward off the media since they have yet to find the true cause.
