If he truly had no experience whatsoever, he’s very lucky he was in a docile plane. The C208 is just about like flying a giant trainer. I don’t know, it’s not quite passing the sniff test to me.
Who knows what the pilot might have said when he realized he was in trouble. If that was me and I thought "probably not gonna make it" I'd try and point out all the important stuff and give whatever info I could as long as I was able.
If the guy had sim training, I'm sure he'd have mentioned it. Will really come down to IF something actually happened to the pilot or not.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
