This is no laughing matter.
Nothing on this yet? Y'all too busy hating on Elon et al? Three on board so either a repositioning flight with an F/A or one muckity muck and two chauffeurs. No survivors.

A Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605, registration N605TR, was destroyed when it impacted heavily wooded terrain while on approach to Truckee Airport (TKF/KTRK), Truckee, California.
The three people onboard were fatally injured.
Multiple witnesses saw the aircraft in a very sharp right turn before impact.
The Challenger circles at category D speeds so I hope that wasn't what they were trying.

THIS... is why we can't have nice things - like circling approaches, and hand flying, and airmanship, and the ability to instruct in experimentals, and...
One day, pilots are going to be able to fly their airplanes. That will be the day Google delivers the self-flying plane avionics stack, I guess. ... SAD.

Yeah, THAT doesn't look right.

16:18:25 CAM2: "Ahhh....A little fast..."
16:18:30 CAM2: "Go around?"
16:18:31 CAM1: "Naw, we got this."

Something tells me I’m going to be reading an accident report about you one day. The guys who think their airmanship is so spectacular are always the ones who are just a smoking hole waiting to happen.

Never flown one, but am typed on the 601. Long story. If the sim is to be believed, this is exactly the wrong airplane to be horsing the nose around on at low speed. Time will tell and all that.

Quite correct. But, per the FA signal, it sure doesn't appear they were slow. If anything, the opposite. It's FA, so yeah, that's far from perfect. But still.

You completely misread me, my misguided friend. I'm not claiming ANYTHING about ME whatsoever. Every day for me is, "There but for the grace of God..." Every day for me, is "What don't I know yet? What could I learn today?"

You communicate terribly, then.

Given the current general level of competency and reading comprehension, and "common" sense, that's a compliment. Same reason people typically despise literature and math science and experts of any kind... hell, these days, same reason many people despise facts.

If you think that everyone else around you is a dolt, then maybe they aren’t the problem…

I don't think everyone is anything. 'Matter'o'fact, I don't really believe in absolutes or superlatives. They're too much like religion. I do know, factually, that many, many folks are dolts. Don't need to believe me, just look at test scores. I also know that many folks are extremely competent, but overly reticent to make waves.

Now, without Googling, why don't you play... "NAME THAT AUTHOR!" Johnny, tell him what he's won!
Co-counsel gives this alternate defense plan: ... pretty sure Joe Bauers thought everyone around him was a dolt. And yeah, mi amigo, he was not wrong.

I operate out of KTRK frequently - in a King Air 350. I can say there are variables that add to complexity of that airport. The fact it is in a bowl surrounded by terrain, strange noise abatement procedures and the airport is almost 6,000 feet elevation all increase your FRAT score
