He was not instrument rated. He took off in the late afternoon for a destination that would have required him to fly VFR in the dark. That alone was a recipe for disaster. Unless, of course, there was a qualified pilot flying right seat. According to several media reports soon after the plane disappeared, witnesses at the New Jersey general aviation airport where they took off reported seeing another male seated in the right front seat but only three bodies were still strapped in were recovered. My wife’s cousins who were working in Manhattan at the time and long time Westchester County residents with heavy Democrat credentials told her that JFK Jr. was going to announce his bid for the vacant Senate seat the Monday morning after the wedding. It’s not hard to imagine a storyline whereby an operative posing as a flight instructor got on the plane with a ‘chute in a carryon, disabled the three innocents, set the autopilot, bailed out the right door and got picked up by a waiting speedboat. Et voila!! Unimpeded campaign and election for the new U.S. Senator from New York.
Perhaps more liberals should do flight training with that instructor. /h

I thought I knew pretty much all the Clinton scandals, but this is a new one. You always have to give each Clinton potential scandal the good benefit of the doubt because there’s nothing they won’t stoop to.
Anyone in Hillary’s way needs to stay in a safe locked room with no windows and no doors.
