Clear, VFR, not talking to anybody. . .wander into restricted airspace that is easily defined by highly visible geographical features. . .I'd say that was pretty much the actions of an idiot. Flying in the DC area requires special vigilance because of the high state of alert and the two people on-board, one an instructor pilot no less, acted foolishly. Claiming lost (according to news reports), they flew south into an area they knew was dangerous. Instead of doing the smart thing, calling someone or turning back north, they continued south.
Their actions do indicate a level of incompetence that if not idiotic, is certainly foolish to the point Darwin will take notice. Flying is very unforgiving.
Flying has been my world since I was 17, and experience in that world gives me the right to comment on what I know. . .apparently you know nothing about that world. Have a nice day and buh-bye.
