Damn planes droppin out the skies like bird shit........


A plane carrying six people crashed in an open field near Copake, N.Y., Saturday, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

At least one person was killed, Columbia County Undersheriff Jacqueline Salvatore said in a press conference Saturday afternoon but could not specify how many other passengers survived.

The plane did not hit any structures on the way down, Salvatore told reporters, and the crash site is difficult to access because of muddy conditions. It was unclear as of Saturday what had caused the plane to crash, Salvatore said.

Officials from the sheriff's office, New York State Police, and a local fire department assisted after a 911 call came in around noon.

The Mitsubishi MU-2B-40 was flying to the Columbia County Airport in Hudson, N.Y., the FAA noted.

Data from the tracking site FlightAware shows the same model plane take off from Westchester County Airport just after 11:30 a.m., with a 12:06 p.m. scheduled landing time. The flight path stops short of the airport after turning east.

The National Transportation Safety Board will lead the investigation and have a team arrive Saturday evening.

All because of the moron who is president.
 
Seems like they be hiring anybody.

Even the experience ones be crashing as well.
It's easier to sell an airplane than it is to regulate the would-be pilots. This place is built just to sell you dumb shit. You can't sell an EV vehicle because the potential buyers were programmed to love the sound of the engine purring. You cant sell an electric motorcycle because folks love the rumble coming down the street and they've yet to see a commercial or movie indoctrinating them.

We can't sell new products because the films weren't made. The films can't be made because no one wants to see those films.
 
Some of the aircraft's flight characteristics may be unfamiliar to pilots accustomed to slower light piston twins. Standard engine-out procedures are counterproductive when flying the MU-2: the commonly taught procedure of reducing flap following an engine failure on takeoff leads to a critical reduction in lift in the MU-2 with its unusually large and effective flaps. When pilots were taught to retain takeoff flap and reduce climb rate after an engine failure, MU-2 takeoff accident rates were reduced. Additionally, the MU-2 is sensitive to trim settings, and it is critical to promptly trim the aircraft properly in all phases of flight.
