This 'pilot' showed incompetence on a grand scale. Having decided to descend by BRS onto a densely populated city, he compounds the obscenity by continuing to run the engine. Sort of a rotating sword of Damocles able to chop up kids, parents, and anyone unable to get out of his way. I hope he gets what he deserves ... hero???? don't make me vomit
Wow. Perhaps I shouldn't be shocked because people warned me about the tone of folks on this discussion forum. But you couldn't be clearer, I think.
Just curious. Would you say the same things about pilots who die when a plane crashes into a residential neighborhood?
By coincidence, just saw a
news report that a King Air 200 crashed into three homes and set them on fire. Location in residential area near Baton Rouge, the capital of Louisiana.
King Air is a twin-engine plane often flown by professional pilots, but maybe not. Surely you judge this King Air pilot the same way? Or not because no Cirrus parachute system? Or is a death penalty suitable justice for your sensibility?
Cheers
