'BH' was on a pedestal,we put him there as in society the aviation industry, he did fall from the sky but he also fell from that pedestal under pressure he put on himself. Sadly though he took not only his own life & that of a trusting passenger but he took the normal lives of many others as well.
Samantha has or is grieving twice, once for the actual death of her mate the other for having to live with the deception of some. I can't believe that CASA had no knowledge of BH conducting Commercial flights (or 'Adventure flights' which at the end of the day amounts to the same thing, duty of explaining the risks), that's almost inconceivable for a regulator in such a small industry!
I feel for those that get caught up in misadventures of those that cannot accept/control their ill feelings towards what's been dealt to them. 'BH' was not a saint, he was only kidding himself:-(
In the end BH was just the bullet in a gun held/fired by other person/s
Maybe some out there will remember this event so as to sway them not to do something similar.
Aviation is full of sad stories but what's even more sadder is that humans never learn
