It's a very serious point, were these poor Pilots qualified? If they were, please direct me to their credentials and experience.
It's a serious question, yes, but what's the point of speculating. Do you have any indications that they were not qualified? How about you wait for the ntsb report, they'll figure it out. In the meantime, google is your friend. Here's a few hints. Just last year, the deceased pilot received the the "Ray Tenhoff award" for "the most outstanding technical paper presented at the annual Society of Experimental Test Pilots Symposium". He also received the Northrop Grumman’s President’s Award. He had 1600 hours of flight time in research aircraft, roughly 15 years of experience, and was not only an accomplished pilot, but also a highly qualified engineer.
Scaled is not a pay to fly program.
