So he didn’t know beforehand he was flying in to Jackson H? Didn’t he bother to read his flight plan given to him by the dispatcher?
Yeah, I made that observation in a couple of comments now.
Nice catch.
IMHO it’s less about the lack of certs to land at JHA than being wholly unqualified to operate a commercial aircraft with passengers as first officer.
Shouldn’t the airline have a process to stop such a thing?
If he couldn’t do it, couldn’t the co-pilot?
His flight plan was labeled secret and only authorized to open once in the air.
