FAA still not policing Pt 91 management cos
This month marks the six-year anniversary of one of the most infamous accidents in the history of business aviation–the crash of a chartered Challenger
The Challenger 600 that crashed on takeoff from Teterboro Airport in 2005 was carrying too much fuel and its c.g. was too far forward. The flight, operating under Part 91, was virtually free of FAA oversight, as it would still be today–a recipe for another disaster.
