D&D Cell Report, 01/09/2006; Cessna 172,
Pilot lost, Pan declared, steers given for Cranfield. When asked if he could climb and maintain VMC, the pilot stated he did not know what VMC was. Later when asked to squawk 3305, the pilot replied he did not know what a transponder was!
Well I will answer my own question.........it is real
What on earth is someone with knowledge like this doing in charge of an aircraft, with possible pax on board.
Anyone else care to comment?
