It stems from reports he wasnt licensed to fly in that weather.

I dont remember the technical details.

This case won’t be the typical case involving a dead teenager. Gianna did have the ability to make money. Her dad had just trademarked her to sell a variety of items.
Of course, Kobe could easily get to 50 million just own his own death.

Apology and bluntly stated, I simply don’t care about who he was. There are many men and women in this great country that lost their life serving the nation, but no wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Passing’s are not to be celebrated, but must be reasonable and a guy that bounced a ball just doesn’t get to me.

News reports when it comes to mishaps are remarkable inaccurate. “Reporters” are not professional pilots or trained and experienced mishap investigators. Not to argue with you, but not being licensed to fly in “that weather” is profoundly inaccurate. No official reports issued, no technical details shared, and what sort of license did the pilot have? Commercial, commercial instrument airplane, commercial-instrument helicopter, ATP, currency?. . .ATC transcripts etc. . .

(Recall Whitney Houston. . .the Flag was lowered because this drug addict passed, but no flag lowering for a hero like Col Phil “Hands” Handley. . .https://theaviationgeekclub.com/how-a-usaf-f-4e-flying-at-mach-1-2-gun-killed-a-north-vietnamese-mig-19-scoring-the-worlds-only-supersonic-gun-kill/)

So, bottom line, right now we really don’t know anything factual related to the mishap. Many times what appears obvious to the average non-rated person, is not so obvious to professional aviators, especially to certified mishap investigators.

(By the way, historically, pilot error accounts for roughly 80% of mishaps)
