Warrior,
Here is what I found, during my searches, considering I taught in Virginia for quite a while, I was looking for the names as well.
I hope that this post does not confirm your worst fears, if they do, I am sorry to bring you the sad news.


The two victims were the only people on board, authorities said. State Police identified the student pilot as Peter C. Jesinsky, 43, of Purcellville, and the instructor as Craig M. Schulz, 24, of Middleburg.

Unfortunately, I knew Craig, he was a pretty cool guy, luckily for me, I did not know him that well...

I have already recieved the tragic news, I knew Craig pretty well, always talked with him at the airport, my worst fearss have been confirmed, he was the last person I talked to before I left Virginia last time. I remember exactly what he said to me, asking me if I wanted to take a demo flight in a cirrus. This is a tragic day he was a very nice guy. That was also the last plane I flew from what I can tell. Quite scary, our prairs are with him and his family tonight.

I cant believe that a plane crashed near where i live...LOL, but it was something small...Not a huge airliner thank god, that would be really bad. Im sorry for the loss. :cry:
