Wesley was the pilot in command and had enough experience to know better than to make the choices that led to this terrible tragedy. If you want to see what happens when an 18-year-old student pilot takes off on a rogue flight at 4am and overflies a military base then watch this debrief 👉 https://youtu.be/jCu1ykQNBpc

"Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth, and sooner or later that debt is paid"

It probably wasn’t this guy’s first time bending the rules. It’s surprising he lived as long as he did, in my opinion.
-
Why do I keep hearing the same words & phrases, no flight plan, no instrument rating, incorrect weight & balance, other pilots on board & no one speaks up? The controller did a masterful job and still six people died for no good reason.

As a pilot, here is a list of channels I never ever want to be featured on: - Pilot Debrief - Dan Gryder: Probable Cause - Blancolirio Whenever I fly, I ask myself, "will that behavior put me in any of those channels?" and if the answer is even a maybe, I think twice before going.

Arrogance is the biggest killer of pilots
-
The most tragic thing is that I started to listen to the video and had that deja vu "wait a minute, he did a video about this already? no? wait... no... it is another story, but every element is repeated, rogue pilot, 5 passengers...." That is truly tragic

When you deny you're in trouble, you're in BIG trouble.
-
A "good VFR pilot" is not the same as a good pilot. How on earth do you travel thousands of miles cross country -- in winter -- and hope you have VFR the entire way?
-
8:40. "It's better to get in a little bit of trouble than to end up dead." Wisdom. Five other people died because of one man's ego issues.

One of the best small charter pilots I ever met was retired USN and zero BS. He had a luggage and a separate person scale in his hanger. If he doubted what you claimed..scale time. He carried a small portable one in all three of his aircrafts because return can be worse with the same people

I've been following your channel for about a year now and my stomach gets in a knot listening to every accident breakdown. I flew privately for 30+ years and decided to stop cold turkey about 10yrs ago after realizing I was losing my "edge", making too many little dumb mistakes that I had read about in so many post-accident reports. I miss the challenge of flying safely, but don't regret knowing when my last flight occurred. Keep up the good work.
-
Finally, an ATC I can actually understand.
-
It never ceases to amaze me how many of these pilots don’t know how to use everything on board the planes they fly.
-
I couldn't bring myself to watch after he lied about being IFR capable. This is beyond words.
-
There are pilots like this guy at every airport. We have one who almost never left the local area but feel he is the expert of everything aviation, giving advice on navigation, etc yet he rarely used more than 5 gallons of fuel in each flight. He has the latest navigation and autopilot avionics but he often struggled to use it for more than keeping heading. Anything more complicated got him flustered.
-
There's nothing worse than being stupid with other people's lives in your hands.
-
Lying to air traffic is like lying to your doctor or lawyer. Probably will end up with you dead or in jail.
-
Sounds like the pilot was a one man Swiss cheese.

"Bad things dont happen to me because I'm special and unique. Bad things happen to other people, not a main character like me"
