baron crash video from 10/31/19

I looked but couldn't find a thread on this crash. if there is, please delete this one but this video just came out today and it's repulsive in many ways.

it starts out with a barrage of bad radio calls and poor situational awareness even before the wheel leave the ground. but the shadow of the plane just before impact is gut wrenching.

Tox report looks like a bit of a medley in the blood.

So, just pilot error/drug incapacitation?

Something about links in a chain or something like that….

medley?

edit: I read the tox report. Got it.

Valium plus other goodies? Wow. With the radio calls n such I think it’s a safe assumption these were t trace amounts from past use, sounds like he likely was pretty out of it at the time…

Gut-wrenching.

Holy cow that one picture of the street with the outline of the airplane tells it all on how they hit the ground.

Anxiolytics in the bloodstream. They affect JUDGEMENT. No Bueno.
