Another sad day. :(

One Olympus 301 has twice the power of a complete F1 starting grid.
XM655 has four of them, all serviceable.

There seems to have been a few aviation accidents recently, not sure if there actually has been more or just seen more reported - not good either way. We have a friend who's just finished flying for DHL made me jump when I first heard the bad news.
