Only a couple of hours later, on the way from Orlando to Dallas, Stewart's private jet went astray on a ghostly journey that ended some 850 miles to the northwest. The jet, carrying Stewart, his agents Robert Fraley and Van Arden, golf-course designer Bruce Borland and the jet's two pilots, plowed nose-first into a farm in rural Mina, S.D. The crash left their remains entombed in a 30-ft. by 40-ft. pit of muddy pasture. "It's like an archaeological dig," said Bob Benzon, the National Transportation Safety Board investigator leading the recovery. "We have...
...Stewart's twin-engine Learjet 35 left Orlando International Airport promptly at 9:19 a.m. and 25 minutes later radioed that it had leveled off at 39,000 ft. Shortly afterward, though, air-traffic controllers noticed that the plane had climbed well above its assigned altitude. Controllers repeatedly tried to contact the pilots for an explanation but got no reply. At that point, the Federal Aviation Administration enlisted the help of the Air Force. Several F-16s were dispatched to check on the errant jet. It also missed the left turn it was scheduled to make toward Texas, and instead...
...enough to signal the pilots. Though the passenger jet's exterior appeared intact, its cockpit windows were obscured by what looked to be a "light coat of frost." Over the next two hours, four other F-16s shadowed the plane. By then, the roving aircraft had made the news. Stewart's Australian-born wife Tracey heard it on a TV news report and tried in vain to call her husband on his cell phone. At about 1:24 p.m., the plane fell to earth at 600 m.p.h. and disappeared from radar...
...Stewart's final tournament was a fizzler. He missed the cut by one stroke and spent his last Saturday on the sidelines of his son's football game. Stewart was ecstatic when Aaron caught a touchdown pass, which helped carry the team to a 14-8 victory. Aaron received the game ball. The night after Stewart's plane went down, Aaron was clutching it. "Mom, this is a very special ball because Dad saw me get it." Amid all the lingering questions of last week, the golfer's son had one of his own. He wanted to know...
Even more promising is Cleopatra 2525, from Rob Tapert and R.J. Stewart, the co-creators of Xena, which still outdraws all these other shows, including V.I.P. and Baywatch. Cleopatra will have Xena's Jennifer Sky playing a stripper whose botched breast-augmentation procedure requires her to be frozen. When she's accidentally thawed in the 26th century, she, Hercules actress Gina Torres and newcomer Victoria Pratt get chased around by robots. But they too are going to spend their time fighting for the environment. There must be some FCC equation for how much sexual exploitation one can do for each...
