Yeah, I'd bet lunch that he is.That’s my thought as well.

When called on the carpet by the comments, he insists the left turn in the traffic pattern rule is only a suggestion. Pointed to 91.126, etc, he counters by saying "When approaching to land at an airport without an operating control tower" means it only applies to a towered airport when the tower was closed (not "operating"), not to an airport which doesn't have a control tower to begin with.
And the video is private again....
I just hope this guy stays on the west coast. I don't ever want to run into the pattern with this dude. I feel bad for you guys out there that run the risk of "running" into this piece of art.....
I'd like to know what CFI/II gives this guy his FR every two years. Has to be someone that has blinders on or he is a really great internet troll that someone mentioned already.

What if Jerry is just a really high level troll?
But every single criticism of this guy is by definition "personal".Once again you live up to your avatar. There's plenty of legitimate things to criticize him about, getting personal just makes you look bad.

I had a three-hour, um, "discussion" with a copilot once over whether the General Manager was an ******* or an idiot. I didn't think he was smart enough to be an *******.How's that saying go? Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity?

I believe the left seater is an ATP.

Ugh...I just watched an different video from that guy. Wants to keep his approach slow because of the weather...until he finds out there is a Medivac that needs priority behind him. So do you choose to accept a delay vector and fly the approach at a comfortable speed. Or do you choose to push it so you make sure you get it before that Medivac? Punch it, of course. What a d-bag.
I think I’d rather be in IMC with you than with Jerry.
And the guy who said that is purported to be an ATP lol. We had a guy like that forced re-assigned to us in my old squadron. Literally, spoke those very words during an EP sim. Yup, he got drummed out of AF flying a year later, couldn't make it through training. He's now an Allegiant CA, so caveat emptor.
so he only struggles mightly WITH an IFR GPS or decent autopilot, or does it require both for him to be a crappy pilot?I wouldn't. Wagner safely navigated IMC without an IFR GPS or decent autopilot for 20 years.
which means approximately nothing with regard to safety of operations.N1120A said:That guy is an ATP. He flies corporate jets, along with his avionics business.
You obviously didn't watch the videos he's pulled down. None of what you've stated about him was exhibited in those videos. No competent pilot comes out 'sideways' when breaking out below minimums. (I don't mean yawed by sideways)

You mean the KOAK ILS to mins video? What gives you the idea he came out sideways or below mins?
Basically you’re saying he was a competent pilot prior to GPS and autopilot, so it follows that GPS and/or autopilot make him as incompetent as he appears in his videos.I agree on the ATP, but what makes you think he somehow struggles with that GPS and his AP?

Latch on to one thing that is a non issue after another safe flight and use it to attack the guy cause you don't like him.
I can't agree with your description. He (as well as his ATP co-conspirator) clearly lost situational awareness on this approach trying to get lower than the published altitude necessary for separation from terrain. I think that's an issue. They also completely fumbled the departure procedure. That could have easily resulted in a loss of separation. That's an issue, too.
Understand that you can't argue with someone who thinks this is a good way to break out on an ILS and shows good airmanship.N1120A, you specifically say that he has good airspeed control. Watch the video again when he drops flaps and gear both overspeed, triggering alarms. If a pilot cannot do something that basic properly, they are pretty darn clueless.

I offered this on another message board, but no one has cashed in yet. If you get a selfie with yourself and Jerry W I will send you $100.
“This is a limited time offer. Act now, before he kills himself.”
HEY! Thems some serious skilz - pulling off a landing after popping out like that!Understand that you can't argue with someone who thinks this is a good way to break out on an ILS and shows good airmanship.

But he’s not pulling many g’s thanks to the 3000+ fpm descent rate.Holy instability, Batman, look at those AIs! 45* bank on the break out!
