How not to land a Citation

[Smellycat]

Im surprised the dummy didnt put em in cutoff and turn off the batteries. Then again he demonstrated a total lack of good judgment while his plane was airworthy, why would he suddenly come to his senses after the swim?

The big question is the pilot still flying? Was it an owner/operator? CJ2 correct?

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

I wonder why insurance prices are so high?

Nope, never wondered, ten years working at an FBO makes you realize that people do dumb things with airplanes.

Damn that was hilarious!
Except for the the fact that he was going for this years Darwin award and tried to take some innocent people with him.
What really surprises me is that no gangbangers decided to snipe the rescue boats before the cops arrived.
That was always why I would never walk from there to the strip!

Hopefuly that guy either forcefully retired or took at least 3 709 rides after that idiotic episode!

 

[sidesaddle]

Anyone know which guy in the boat was the pilot? Or perhaps he was still in the plane going bass fishing or something. What a way to troll.

Yes and yes. And he has already a new plane, and named it apropriately...

Oh, please tell me that's just a funny coincidence...

I heard (ya, speculation) that the pilot evacuated the pax, restarted, and tried to make it back onto the a/p property. Makes more sense than the FADEC starting the engine(s) and throttling up.

Those gotta be some pretty stout engines though, can't imagine how much water erosion was in the turbine section after that. Anyone know the manufacturer on that model?

This same idiot went back to cessna and bought an XL. I found that out from one of the Cessna pilots......I think that he needed something with a little more power from the engines next time he needs to power out of the drink....

ROCKER. Bite your toungue, that is a Sovereign, not XL. You hawker guys.

Oy-WET. LOL!

How did he manage not to have his certificate revoked?

 

[viking737]

Did he have a Danish or US license?
Maybe Feds took one and he kept the other?

I remember the original report on this a couple of years ago. Both guys 60 or so, and the two CHICKS in the back were WAY young....

..prly their daughters....right.....
