PPL or CPL
Sky Writer, I do not know PB, nor do I know his qualifications. What I do know is that his comments were in poor taste and that your assertion that he is a PPL who flies for reward is a very serious accusation, one which the authorities would doubtless investigate if true . In my view, neither PB nor yourself do yourselves any credit in using this particular thread to comment on each other or the victim of the accident to which this thread relates. Maybe the Questions forum would be a better place to discuss the issue of licence held and validity of "expert comment" etc etc.
