back in 2022 a co-pilot just decided to Peter Pan out of the airplane while in flight for no particular reason. In this audio(video is wrong match), the pilot is cool, 'matter of fact', but ATC is amateur hour.... https://www.instagram.com/reel/DFeU17FpZPd/
It's surprising how many airshow pilots have been killed in routine ferry flights. Jack Sliker and Dale Snodgrass come to mind.
There are beacons, and then there are directional lights. What is this for? I looks like a traffic red light(solar powered), mounted on a hill in the middle of nowhere Las Vegas, pointed up at an angle, flashing 3 strobes every second https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIRgKUovt6n/
Midair Collision JUMP TO 4:45 for colloision . Cirrus pilot comment on above vid: @Micslmn The Cirrus pilot here. First off, I’m just thankful to be alive and well, besides a badly fractured leg, I pretty much walked away from this. I watch all of your videos Juan and never expected to end up on one personally. I am an extremely careful and diligent pilot, I just have no words for this one. I was shooting this approach making the appropriate radio calls with all of the other aircrafts on frequency acknowledging me. I did not see this guy at all, not sure where he began his takeoff roll, but I’m well aware that shooting an instrument approach does not alleviate me from ensuring that the runway environment is clear, again, I did not see him. .
