News reports that pilot became incapacitated during flight across the Gulf of Mexico. The plane circled for hours before crashing into the sea. (flightaware.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dr Hertzak's family and friends; he was a fine physician and gentle soul--he will be greatly missed.
No TV, Have they retrived the plane out of the water, and if so they get the Doc out?
Shows last IFR flight in that plane back in 2011. Fly 500 miles over water by yourself. Not wise... Couldn't pay a babysitter to sit your right seat?
RIP Doc
RIP Doc
Firstly RIP and condolences to the bereaved.
I was alerted to a failure to pressurize in a King Air by a packet of potato chips (crisps in the UK ) that burst going through 16,000' for a final FL210. IIRC the only warning is a yellow light on the annunciator panel. I've also flown the 421, max FL260, but don't remember what warnings are presented. Always carry an unopened packet of potato chips with you, it may save your life.

Peter was a friend and he loved to fly, We talked for hours about his trips to florida , Vail, and other places. He enjoyed the flights as much as I love boat trips. We compaired our hobbys that way. It was much more fun than talking about medical devices which is how we became friends. I know he followed all the rules because he was very precise. I will miss visiting with him and I was shocked to hear of his accident. He was doing something he loved. Rest in peace peter.
