They say he showed great promise as a pilot. I'm sorry, but no "pilot" makes a decision like that.
Despite what the FAA calls them on their certificates, some people are not pilots in my book. I hate to place blame based on one news report, but it sounds like this kid might be one of them. Sad that he and his friends found out the hard way why some FARs exist.
Yeah. Unfortunately, they didn't find out. They won't have a second chance.
It being dark and with bad wx to boot, it sounds like bulletproof youth took over.
Yep. That's the problem with us kids. We think everything will turn out okay, and disastrous consequences occur from bad decisions.
Unfortunately, this went real bad
Yeah. Hopefully it will be a lesson to others.
