On January 1, 2005, around 1120 central standard time, a Cessna 551 (Citation II), N35403, piloted by an instrument rated private pilot, was substantially damaged during an in-flight collision with terrain while attempting to land at Ainsworth Municipal Airport (ANW), Ainsworth, Nebraska.

Pilot reported descending out of IMC at around 300-400ft AGL, and the GPS MDA is at 500ft AGL. Hummm...

Always think before you talk to the Feds.

Yes. I understand. There are alot of private pilot Citationjet, single pilot operators. If you have alot of money, it's no problem. Everyone can be bought for a price.

Just stay on the ground when you hear them on the radio.

Some of these private pilots you condemn have thousands of hours and quite a bit in the jet they are flying. I know one guy that has a few airplanes ( a few warbirds) and all he has is a private and he is an outstanding pilot.

There are some that are unsafe as well...but you find those in every seat in every airplane.

You're right...I was being sarcastic. I've also met some good pilots in the same scenario I mentioned above.

Unfortunately, the bad ones are so bad it makes it difficult to remember the good ones.

John Travolta has several type ratings at the private pilot level.
