An FAA spokesperson confirmed that no one aboard was currently qualified to fly the Citation. The agency's airman database shows Joe Lara having a multi-engine commercial pilot certificate, instrument rating, and CE-500 type rating but no record of a current medical. Another occupant held a private pilot certificate with multi-engine and instrument ratings but was not type-rated for the Citation.
