Here is what I have been hearing (pretty consistently) throughout the day....

*Mr. Stack had evidently had 'issues' with the IRS since he was a young adult. (He died today at the age of 53.)

*Mr. Stack had planned this act for a while, as is evident by the rant he posted.

*Mr. Stack was flying VFR, meaning he did not need to file a flight plan, which would be necessary for poor visual conditions. He waited for a sunny, clear day.

*The building in question houses a branch of the IRS which deals with folks like Mr. Stack who was not paying his taxes. When it gets past the point where they garnish one's wages or puts a lien on bank accounts, then one visits the IRS in this building. Mr. Stack knew this building.

*Last night, Mr. Stack "went balistic" and Mrs. Stack checked herself (and her daughter, Mr. Stack's step~daughter) into a hotel. When they came back to the house, the story I'm hearing consistently is that when they drove up, they saw the house was on fire, saying, "That's my house! That's my house!" at which point some neighbors took the two to their home.

*Mr. Stack flew so low his wing clipped the windshield of a Lexus just before he crashed into the lower 2 floors of the Echelon Building at Mopac and Hwy 183. The plane was banking, wings nearly perpendicular to the ground and a retaining wall outside the building broke some of the impact.

*The people inside the building got out pretty quickly, some hollering, "Follow my voice!" as the building was dark and smoke~filled.

*There was a fatality within the building, a man by the name of Hunter (not sure if that's his first of last name). He and his wife both work in that building. They live in Cedar Park, NW of Austin (home of Puplove and Oiler).

*Mr. Stack, they are assuming, is dead, too. And because of the instability of the situation, his body is still in the plane.

All of that being said, no matter WHAT kind of government we have (or DON'T have), this was NOT the act of a "brave", courageous, strong, sane man. And that's all I have to say to address such a ridiculous notion.

I hurt now for his wife and step~child, who will, no doubt, feel the shame of his acts of irresponsibility. I also hurt for the man's family who went to work like any other day, doing his job, unsuspecting he would be killed by a lunatic with a pilot's license.
