What’s even funnier is that he probably wouldn’t have been in all that bad of a situation had he just shut the fuck up.

Like he’s obligated to cooperate with the investigation but he’s within his rights to just say “hey this feels like a witch hunt I am not participating or giving statements at all” and it’s not clear how much they really would have done.

Absolute certainty he’d lose his license maybe there’s penalties or fines for stonewalling the investigation, but like it would probably blow over as long as they made sure he never got near the controls of an airplane again.

But then he decided to obstruct a federal investigation. Like that’s the one thing you really can’t do ask Martha Stewart.

he's also been flying since. He made a video about it in which he flies with a CFI, who is clearly so confident in the legality of i that he wears a ski mask during the entire video. Because so long as he's receiving instruction he's arguably not the pilot in command. And I'm gonna bet that as part of this plea deal he's been asked to not pull that crap anymore.
