Pel-Air Liability

The pilot's ignorance is so incredible it really makes you shake your head
when you discover that he is back flying?

The WX was known to be unpredictable, he left with minimal fuel and empty tip tanks, and, apparently made no effort to check the weather before he reached the point of no return.

Then there is the chief pilot or ops manager who approved of the flight.
Then it goes on to the responsibility of the person doing the emergency training, the person who checks the emergency equipment, the person who made the check list, and then of course, who allowed the type training to be done by a non approved person?

Then, to top it all off, the investigator gives Pel-Air a clean bill of health?
That Pel-Air had no liability in any form

No, that's not all.
Then we have them having the audacity, and the government, the equal audacity to try and take over the RFDS that operates on standards and its duty as a charitable organization?

That means we are looking at all the signs and symptoms of incredible corruption not to mention, asking for another accident to happen
with a pilot who took off with minimal fuel to a weather hell hole at the end of its fuel endurance without checking the wx before he crossed the PNR.

How anyone can hire him under again, is mindboggling.
If I ever get on a plane with him up the front,
I'd get off in a flash and so should anyone else with any brains.
