Another person I'm going to be thinking of is Brian Vickers, ... The plane crash was on his birthday, of all things.

If I wasn't going to win, I wanted Brian to. He moved down to block me, but I had just barely got my bumper under him.

The Howard Hughes I knew began to change after his plane crash in 1941.

We are strangely biased, as individuals and media institutions, to focus on big sudden changes, whether good or bad - amazing breakthroughs, such as a new gadget that gets released, or catastrophic failures, like a plane crash.

After the plane crash and all the other stuff, someone snatches your kid. It can't get any worse than that. Michael goes from bad to worse this year. You'll see him dig deep to really deal with what's going on.

My biggest fear ever is to be involved in a plane crash, so when that happened... well, I'm just thankful to be alive. I'm just grateful to be here at all.
