I hope Jack has decided to hang up his wings after that.
Didn't they take his medical/certificate after this one. I thought he lost an eye?
Someone close to his flight department told me that he is back flying again.

And this is the problem of ego versus good judgement and good skills. Had he had a safety pilot with him, the incident most likely could have and would have been avoided. Any wise pilot, no matter how many years he has flown, or under what conditions, or how many thousands of hours he has flown, knows when it's a good idea to have a second set of hands and eyes with him upfront. If indeed he is flying again and flying solo and two crashes haven't taught him anything, I just hope no one else dies when he eventually has his third.
I thought he had only had two. (AirCam (into the lake) and the Premier at Osh) I didn't know about the P51. When/where did he do that?
It's very hard to find info about, but this mentions something about a taxi incident with a baron. http://www.mustangsmustangs.com/p-51/?survivors/serial/44-74474
Nah, two more planes downed and they call him Ace.That is a new one to me, They do call him the cat in the hat, so 3 lives down 6 to go?
I hope Jack has decided to hang up his wings after that.
