Default NTSB Prelim Out

Some interesting info. A number of pilot mistakes:

-penetrating the Restricted Airspace requiring altitude restrictions to be put on military aircraft

-acknowledging a "direct to" clearance but not doing it until being prompted by ATC

-instructed not to descend below 1900ft until the fix but they got down to 1700ft.

Ad for the "Lightweight Data Recorder" this PC-12NG had on it: https://www.l3harris.com/all-capabil...a-recorder-ldr

The NTSB recovered this item so that should help a lot in figuring this out.
