1. This is eerily like the crash

that took the life of PGA pro Payne Stewart. He and others were headed toward
Dallas to check out a spot for a new golf course and then head to Houston for a
tournament. When the charter jet failed to execute a left turn to the west, the Air Force
scrambled jets within minutes. They saw the planes windows were frosted over
and were unable to make contact. The Lear flew on until it ran out of fuel and crashed.
It either lost cabin pressure or ran out of oxygen. Either way, the passengers had little
time to put on their oxygen masks. I can't find anything on line, but I remember seeing
a program on TV that said that the cabin oxygen bottle was empty.
