Dr. Paddy Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 100 feet from clear skies.Yes, but my experience is if you're only 100 feet before the top of the deck, you can already see breaks to the blue. It is certainly getting much brighter around you. Once you're out, its blue sky and 30 miles viz. Some people might say he still couldn't go to overhead the academy and then go back down through the cloud and land. That's not how it would work. At 2300 feet, in the blue, you are basically looking at a lake of fog you have just come out of, with all these islands on it that are mountaintops higher than 2300. It's beautiful. So they go to an "island" near the academy, land one one that has roads, anywhere you can set a chopper down, which is anywhere where there is 60 feet of flat ground. Get the address and call the limo, or two or three taxis. Pilot sits there, calls for delivery lunch, the fog burns off, and he goes to his regular destination and picks them up after the game. All very easy. There was no emergency until the left turn and descent began. That was the emergency. There is no rational basis for saying he intentionally did that. VFR on top is perfectly legal for them. The pilot was qualified. The operator could fly that rule. Not IFR, but they were approved for VFR on top. Even private pilots can do that.

He may never have been in hard IFR at any time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
