Air traffic control directs you. They make me go over the ocean when I take off from Jacksonville,Fl area. Trying to keep you well away from major airport traffic.

Rich executive with a fast jet and little time behind the stick less than a year and not a professional, no copilot, at night, IFR conditions, bad weather, and late at night in a hurry to get home. Possible bird strike or mechanical failure, but no mayday call? Most likely pilot error CFIT from disorientation similar to JFK Jr. going down.

I live in the Columbus area and just listened to the local news. Seems the weather last night was terrible and several questioned the pilots decision to take off.

I am in the maritime business in Charleston which is a about 60 air miles to Savannah....the USCG bases their helo’s in Beaufort which is about halfway in between both seaports....smart use of their assets.

For a second I thought you were talking about LeBron. "Sounds right on" gave me the clue it wasn't him.
