Title: Trevor Jacob Fiasco
Post by: TimRB on January 22, 2022, 10:25:14 AM
A lot of people are talking about the "crash" of that nice Taylorcraft, and how it seems to have been a planned stunt.  Many videos on the topic, and speculation on how Jacob's ass is grass in the FAA's view.  Anyway, one video producer mentioned an interesting coincidence that I have not seen elsewhere:  Jacob's incident was 50 years to the day from DB Cooper's jump from the airliner.  I have not checked this out personally, and have no idea if it's true, or even significant.  Anyway, just working on my post count.

It is apparently. Wiki says DB Cooper vanished Nov. 24, 1971 and Kathryn’s says the Taylorcraft incident happened Nov. 24, 2021.

That guy is a douchebag.  Just as every item in a checklist is written in blood, every dumb ass FAA regulation comes from dickheads like this pulling stupid stunts.
