Can’t find a picture or info on this guy anywhere. I’m wondering if all the news outlets agreed not to post or re-post anything about him in order to somewhat discourage copycats from seeking their 15 minutes of fame.

Picking up on some of his radio conversations with ATC, he said he wanted to go see that Orca whale that’s carrying its dead calf in nearby waters, which made me think he has liberal tendencies. But another time he mentioned that he wouldn’t get a break because he’s a white guy. A confused individual either way.
I had similar fixed wing time to you but never did get the MS 747 back on the ground in one piece (after trying an hour or so; this was back with an early version of FS).
The Feds have bottled up his personal information, but I just posted a thread with a lot of information on him (name Richard Russell):

Thanks for that info.
Could well be
What a terrible indictment of our times when we cannot rule anything out.
Speaking of MK-ULTRA is anyone convinced that the program and its information has been destroyed or even stopped? There is NO question that the CIA would not tell the President of its existence, if it wanted to hide it. The Agency has admitted that it would lie in court if it believed that was critical.

Or like this 747 flying through an oversized croquet hoop:
Already tainted by liberals
No joke. This isn’t Breaking News but the Turkish Lira dropping 15% is? Not too impressed with the guy running that switchboard.
But of course. Jeez, the NSA lied through their teeth about intercepting EVERYBODY’S cell phone calls and storing them in huge building-sized servers all over the country. “That’s crazy, hehe, we could never come close to doing a mammoth undertaking like that, IF we wanted to...,” they snickered in open testimony. Then Snowden released Top Secret court orders, d’oh! It’s not a crime to lie to avoid disclosing classified information.
I can’t say that I understand why so many stories get moved to chat.
Sad but he chose spectacularly
Yep
My dad was a USAF FIGHTER pilot 55-62 in F84,86,100,and 104
Later owned many civilian birds and flew steady 1969-1992
From Bonanzas to King Air 100 and a leased Starship and one of the last Duke roll offs
And he owned some warbirds
He said the same thing you just did...give him time to acquaint with controls and he could land anything short of a carrier landing
He had a few emergency landings under his belt including a fuel issue oddly enough near where Skynyrd went down but he was in a Baron and it was daylight..landed on Miss Hwy 24
Another one was as a fighter pilot in an F86 in of all places a sewage lagoon dead stick
He taught me to fly a bit enough to handle the smaller birds if he was ill
Would have liked to hear him tell of his experiences.
He was quiet except about planes and football and history
And my mom.
Unlike me...I talk more no question..lol
