Actually there's a lot going on with these 2 numbnuts that I really don't want to comment on at the present time but their actions had implications that reached into my father in law's accident.News must be slow if its just taken this long to reach headlines! Still....pilots are idiots. Guess they don't screen for common sense at the Academy anymore.
The old punish everyone for the actions of a few idiots rule.When people pull stuff like this, it blows it for everyone else
Holy crap, Joe, I had no idea! My sincere appologies, bro. I wouldn't do that intentionally. I hope those two fartblockers are grounded, at least?
Depending who you talk to Holm may or may not be an innocent bystander. He's had his run ins with the FAA as well.Everyone is saying is that both pilots were 'numbnuts', etc., but it doesn't seem that Holm was operating his a/c in an unsafe manner. I know that the a/c involved are operationally restricted, but did Holm actually violate any regulations?
It's not a rhetorical question I'm asking. I'm genuinely curious as to the legalities involved.

PS: Another thing: Are there any restrictions in regard to posting properly attributed excerpts of copyrighted material on this site?
No, not the link to the clip. I mean excerpts like the quote from the LA Times I posted.
Some discussion boards will remove any copyrighted material that's posted. They only allow links and VERY small excerpts.
