July 31, 20223 yr 12 minutes ago, SurelySerious said: On a fixed gear airplane, though, right? Yup, that's what makes it so puzzling.
July 31, 20223 yr Speculation is he leaned out the door to check the right gear malfunction and accidentally fell as he was untethered... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/family-of-pilot-who-died-after-exiting-plane-during-mid-flight-emergency-left-reeling-father-says/ar-AA109ZqZ

August 2, 20223 yr He used to work as a roadie for Jethro Tull. This is why he was fired. In all seriousness. This guy will have a fun time in prison.

Barring further evidence coming to light, the most likely working theory is that this was an attempt to visually check the damaged right main while in flight, gone horribly wrong. Anyone who has ever been anywhere near an open Herc ramp in flight, wouldn't think of doing so without a harness attached.

August 4, 20223 yr I listened to that 911 call, it's still no evidence the copilot deliberately "jumped" from the airplane...AgreedThe controllers were quoting the pilot who landed, but there’s a lot unanswered; jumped, fell , pushed, etc.Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

And in semi-related news - airforcetimes is clearly hitting on all cylinders today, with this headline, "5 military movies that would be better with Velociraptors." Not sure if that's a good thing or not (might be).

Started with a jump run, went to the pattern, two circuits, then headed for RDU and declared, implying the second bounce went wrong (hard landing, etc). Ref: video I'd posted earlier

I like the way you think but I was envisioning the flute being shoved from the opposite direction, feed the douchebag beans, and have him blow Mozarts Magic Flute out of his ass. Punishment with classical music appreciation and education all rolled into one.
August 5, 20223 yr Reminder that "he" is from CA. So reward will be a medal for his degenerate behavior and a long line of parents to "groom" their kids.

August 9, 20223 yr That’s pretty solid evidence it was suicide, unless the pilot is completely lying to ATC, but doesn’t seem like it.
