Yes, still waiting for a definitive word on this. In the past, when pilots were taken hostage, we were able to contribute directly to them to help them in their plight. Now that two pilots have lost their lives and made the ultimate sacrifice, we need to help out their families. I appreciate being able to donate to a charity, but the reality is that the life insurance doesn't kick in until at least six months down the road. It makes it tough on any family, especially ones with children. College funds are nice, but i suspect these families need help NOW. I will send checks to them, but for those who are listening, please let us know where to send them directly. I don't want it to go to a charity; the paychecks for these gentlemen have stopped, and we need to take care of their families until insurance payments kick in. Am I being naive or misguided? Please let me know how to help; a pm is fine.

regards,
Paul
