Alas, flight 587, ran into excessive levels of anecdote and didn't survive.
The US's second most lethal air crash.

Interestingly, while the crash WAS precipitated by the effects of wake
turbulence much as Carl (I think it was) described, the overall cause
as reported by the NTSB was excessive rudder control force in response
to the turbulence. They concluded that if the pilot had left things
alone instead of fighting it as he did then the craft would have
survived.
