maxtorqe Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 The pilot probably was not vaccinated, was operating as 703, logging his time as 702. Recording his airtime and not his flight time…. I’d guess the authorities are after him 😂  oh and definitely the pilot is not in good standing with HAC or HAI  4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beach Man Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 Witness said it was spinning like "crazy" before it hit. My first thought was low and slow over the river to look at something. Now hot and heavy. LTE. Just my humble opinion... Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
