Plane. I dont think this was the first flight certainly. And the communications back and forth with the tower at one point asking if there were other pilots on the line, asking about what kind of chop he would get into over the mountain areas. This went on for quite a period of time and it did Emso Liseem E air Traffic Controller had some familiarity with them. So as the picture becomes, you know, more and more flushed out, this is someone who was familiar with the airport. You know, you almost are tempted to say it was someone who kind of snapped because he clearly enjoyed the flight, enjoyed the role and loop that he performed, sounded anyway, surprised that he was able to do that loop. That is difficult do especially in a twin Engine Aircraft that is not made do that. And it sheds a lot of light. And many people heard the clip that we just played, but i want to play a bit more of it. Obviously viewers here in the u. S. , many people just waking up again for this plane that was stole
rich, you say you are at 2100 pounds of fuel left? yeah. i don t know what the burnout is like on takeoff, but yeah, it burned quite a bit faster than i expected. so just listening there to the tone of this conversation, mary, it is bizarre, right, to say the least. it is not confrontational. it seems that the mechanic is having a good time saying, hey, i hope it doesn t mess things up for others. bizarre, right, to i a the lesa least. and what does it say about how he was able to get up in the airplane in the first place? well, and that is very typical because at airports all over the world, i mean mechanics have the ability to taxi the aircraft. they are qualified for that, that is one of the things that they are allowed do.
