  A friend of mine took me and some others on a flight from Phoenix to Palm Springs. He&apos;s a fun-loving jovial fellow (he even did some mild roller-coaster maneuvers in the air), but when it came to procedures, he turned into a different animal -- no-nonsense, almost uptight. He literally walked around the plane with a clipboard, touching this and that, ticking off items on a checklist, and then put the paper in a binder before we even left the hangar. Then, during takeoff and landing, he basically told everyone to shut up and leave him alone. In the air, he took us around a little sightseeing, chatty and fun, and then when we got close to Palm Springs, he said &quot;all right, we can&apos;t talk anymore,&quot; and clammed up. Now I appreciate how strict he was about our safety.

  Anyone who gets caught falsifying documents should NEVER be given a second chance!

  A broken King Air C90, operated by a low time pilot with questionable training and maintained poorly &nbsp;by a mechanic who kept no records... what could go wrong. &nbsp;😢

  I think this channel is one of the top 5 public services of the entire internet. Should be required viewing for everyone in this industry.

  I got a 100 on my Private Pilot written exam. I almost failed my check ride because my check pilot told me to execute a power off stall and recovery and I executed a power on stall recovery that developed into an incipient spin. The check pilot grabbed the controls because he was startled, and didn’t think I had control of the plane. He was expecting an uneventful power off stall, and instead got a nose high full break. Neither of us were completely clear if he had asked for a power on, or power off… so he gave me the benefit of the doubt and passed me. A few months later, I was asked by the tower, while on a southerly heading to make a left turn to 270. This was to provide spacing for a commuter airline entering the airspace ahead of me, instead, I turned right to a heading of 270 and came face to face with a Saab about a mile away at the same altitude converging rapidly. A few more times, I bumbled similar requests from the tower. Apparently I have a hard time with transposition of numbers and directions… I don’t fly anymore… for the safety of others.

  As a former air controller and skydiver, and a private pilot of nearly 40 years, I am without words after watching this debrief.

  “Pilot was an investment banker” so basically he was an expert in fudging numbers?

  Hoover is such a class act. He does these videos justice, for everyone. Thank you.

  As a CFI, it&apos;s absolutely unbelievable to me that the DPE(s) who signed the pilot off never questioned the fact that a pre-solo student pilot logged 40+ hours of multi PIC time in a King Air. Any of our local examiners would have laughed him out of the room and probably reported him to the FSDO. <br><br>They were either in on whatever racket the flight school owner was running or did not even check his logbook.

  Wow. Being a professional pilot and skydiver. &nbsp;Both for over 27 years. I’m absolutely disgusted with the negligence in this incident.

  Bobby needs to be in jail for life, not just a revoked license. &nbsp;The owner should be in there with him. &nbsp;He was probably employing Bobby and paying him under the table because he knew Bobby couldn&apos;t legally do the maintenance, which meant he could pay less to have Bobby do the work. &nbsp;There is no way to avoid using the word &quot;shocking&quot; repeatedly in this video! &nbsp;The only word that was missing but should have been frequently mentioned was the word &quot;criminal&quot;!
