Egypt Air Flight 990


Was google-bating this afternoon, when I ran into the Wikipedia entry about Flight 990, that crashed on a New York-Cairo course. The cause of the crash is widely attributed to a suicide by pilot, Gameel El-Batouti. Check out the last line in this entry, under trivia. For non-Arabic speakers, the pilot's name 'Batouti' is very similar to the Arabic name of 'Donald Duck': 'Batout'.

Talk about a bizarre thing to put in.
