Like can you turn it on with a key or do you press a button or what? And how do you take off? Is it that easy?
I smell something fishy.

Looked like something straight outta GTA

Probably just watched YouTube videos.

Flight simulators are pretty realistic these days. Anyone can purchase a flight simulator.

Yeah I guess it was just a flight simulator.

Never saw a key in the King Air 200 or Hawker My dad flew. Just hit the buttons. Take off isn’t necessarily easy, but landing is harder. When my dad was still flying I could’ve probably gotten the plane off the ground.
Getting it back on the ground would’ve been a little more tricky.
Wouldn’t know what to do in the modern glass cockpits tho.

There’s no key. Taking off isn’t terribly difficult if you’ve used MS flight simulator before.
Landing on the other hand...

I mean, throttle up, pull back on the fkn yoke. Flying in its basic form ain't rocket surgery.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000, helluva game

Press a lot of buttons.
Glad he didn't hurt anyone else besides himself.

Well you got the throttle part right.

The Wright brothers didn't have previous flight experience, but they made it work

dammit I used to know the procedure for the KA by heart. Sucks to get old.

It's not like he was proficient at it. He didn't even know how to pressurize the cabin.

My pilot learned whilst in the Air Force.
