Moron With an Airplane

A 24-year-old pilot with an airsick passenger who landed his single-engine Piper Warrior on Rockaway Beach in Queens on Monday night could not be talked out of it, no matter how hard an air-traffic controller tried, according to a recording.

The pilot, Jason Maloney of Cornwall, N.Y., later told the police that he had gotten the idea from a television program called “Flying Wild Alaska” that depicted rough landings.
How that clown managed to be able to drink a glass of water without drowning is open to question. If he had a bona fide emergency, he could have landed at JFK or at Floyd Bennett Field.

Because of this clown's foolishness, that pathway by JFK may be closed off. And he wrecked a perfectly good airplane, because it got a saltwater bath once the tide came in.

What an imbecile. I guess they'll admit any clown to Georgetown University Medical School, nowadays.

Made me so sad to see that plane in the surf.

I hope he enjoyed his flying career. I'm sure that report of engine trouble might be actionable legally, as well as, um... regulatorily.

It's called Rich little Yuppie scum, need I elaborate ?

Fucking idiot. Just because he saw it happen in the wilds of Alaska on TV doesn't mean it's a good idea to try on a public beach. I hope he loses his pilot's license permanently!

Me thinks the drinking was a bit excessive at Republic. Dumb pud.

Actually if they get the plan off the beach fast and seriously hose it down the airframe will be good. The rest..
not so much, like the avonics are gone..

He will likely go three rounds and if the license is still in his pocket it won't be worth much. If the bird is not his or its insured either way he's paying.

Eck!

Spud, it wasn't even his airplane. It was owned by a company called Plane Nonsense, Inc., which is an aero club with over thirty aircraft.

On the other hand, many of their airplanes are surplus from the Univ. of North Dakota, which has a rather shitty reputation for its flight school.

He's not a "teensy weensy" moron. He's a HUGE moron.

willis said...

Most folks that own private aircraft generally keep "sick sacks", along with other non-required convenience items on board....just sayin.

Spud said...

Then I amend my comment to: Spawn of Yuppie scum dumbshit spoiled rotten child.

Comrade Misfit said...

Willis, true, but it was a rental aircraft from the East Coast Aero Club. It's possible that the sick-sack had been used and not replaced. Not wanting to get puke inside the airplane was a poor excuse.

Spud, but his grandmother said he helped on Habitat for Humanity projects! So he was a Self-Absorbed Spawn of Yuppie Scum With a Social Conscience (or he had to do court-imposed community service).
