Citation down @ VNY?

[JediNein]

The jumper story was put down quite strongly by the helicopter pilots covering the story. The witness with the baggage door 'story' has several thousand hours in type among other types. I'm glad I was looking the other way and didn't have to watch two acquaintances die.

VNY lost a good charter operation part-owner/DO and a good co-pilot. May they rest in peace.

The guy who jumped out was probably just going outside to clean the engines out and lost his footing.

The Crew that was killed were friends. Your identity needs to be revealed to the community so you will never go beyond the world of instructing.

I'm sorry to hear that. Its hard to lose friends, especially when it could have been any one of us. Lets all be careful out there.

Get a life.

Getting back to the topic, is that aircraft's performance inherently poor on one engine or does it seem like more happened than just a problem with a single engine? Wondering if it's possibly that debris hit both engines..

Your comment is in extremely bad taste. I hope that someday you are able to attain a level of maturity that allows you to realize what an incredible ass you are.



Regarding the death of two airmen - there but for the Grace of God go each of us.

RIP

Hey guys I think rumpletumbler was just trying to illustrate the outrageousness of the CNN report. Take it easy.

I dont know, but I am sure with the door open there was additional drag, in addition what ever the debris hit I am sure was damaged as well. Not to mention Multiple emergencies at lift off. They don't train that one in the simulator.

My prayers are with the family, friends an co-workers. RIP.

Frank's been through multiple emergencies after V1 before.

I've flown with Capt. Frank in the past on a few occasions. Let me tell ya, if that airplane could have been saved, Capt. Frank was the one man who would have saved it. A very humble man and a great pilot. May they rest in peace.
