Poor guy had no visibility and probably should not have taken off in the first place. Plus he didn' t have certification for poor weather conditions. But what a terrible price he paid. One blessing is that he didn' t land on the street. I recall that John Kennedy Jr. Piloted a plane with his wife and her sister, also in poor weather. All three perished. Very sad.
RIP! My prayers to his family 🙏🏽
He shouldn't have taken off in the 1st place. Even pilots who are certified don't always risk bad weather, they delay
He was doomed as soon as he took off.
This is beyond sad! My heart bleeds for his family.
At least he didn’t crash on the street.
If he wasn't certified to fly in bad weather, why was he anyway? He should not have been
R.I.P., sir. Let it be noted that ONLY HE was hurt or died so for all of those that are criticizing him for flying, shame on you.
RIP pilot
He misunderstood his window of opportunity. A fatal , unnecessary calculation. Amateur decision.
Can we all take a moment and just appreciate the sturdiness of the building .. great workmanship…
Hmm ? Sumpin don't smell right ?!
“he was lost” was reported last week.
20 minutes doesn’t seem like a very big window.
Lost… in Manhattan?
Tfw you get lost in the sky
not qualified to fly in clouds …how gullible does the NTSB think we are
