Silence

Funny how there is so much silence over this incidence......whose afraid of the big bad wolf, or has a certain individual forgotten to file an incident report.
Dont worry, the passangers did.

What- at FL 130 on a Highveldt summer morning @08.00 hours?
Possible yes and the possible no.
Wonder what else could lock the controls - bit like a red flag perhaps?

The description sounds similar to an incident on a 1900 about a year ago. The pitot heat weren't working and froze and the crew lost all air-data and orientation in IMC. Thankfully broke cloud at about 10 000' and landed safely.

Only difference is the 1900 has pitot/static ports and the King Air has the static ports at the back. The King Air 200 also doesnt have a pitot heat warning.

Highest time KingAir in the world

The owner of this KingAir can't afford aviation. This is one of the worst and highest time KingAirs in the world. He hasn't paid his bills in 8 months and nobody will touch this aircraft. Someone will die if this plane is not grounded soon.
