Anyone else see a trend here?! This is not the first time Roush has crashed a plane. How does he still have an FAA Pilots certificate? people have been 709'ed for way less. The NTSB says almost all of them were 'avoidable', so what gives with these guys?!?

The issue here isnt where the pilots are coming from. Jack Roush WAS the pilot in both incidents. I hate to admit it but is it possible just like everything else government controlled MONEY talks?????
Just a theory how much does he contribute annually to the FAA or any other organizations. I woul dlike to think other wise but the facts are hard to ignore here as COMMUTR brought up.

How exactly do you hire a professional pilot for an Aircam? The whole point of an Aircam would be defeated by having someone fly the thing for you. Could he have had a professional pilot on the Premier, sure. But an Aircam, please.

Who was the politicians wife that sued Cessna for like $89 Mil (and won), because her son couldn't fly parial panel IMC and augered in with himself and his dad (said politician on board)? I think it was a C-340 and if I remember correctly it was out of annual, or hadn't had it's 2 year IMC certification???
