  • @rikkus67 I agree. I know the situation is not be dismissed, but how can they leave out an important fact like that. I don't care if it was 20 years ago and expired. He had flown Cesnas before. The basic physics are the same.

  • This video forgot to mention that the "pilot" had experience flying airplanes before already; in smaller airplanes. It's not like he did not know anything about flying. Google for an article on AOPA.org

  • good job to all.

  • Mr. White was clearly a pilot. He was calculating his approach without the tower doing it for him. When you go from flying single engine aircrafts to a King Air it must have been like learning to ride a bike just to be put on a motorcycle. He might not call himself a hero, but he not only saved his family but nailed a perfect landing!

  • They were all yelling, red, blinking, flashing and...just ignore 'em...I didn't know what they were anyway. Way to go Mr. White...cool hand Luke from Monroe!

  • @rikkus67 Doug White is my best friend Maggie's father. He did have a pilot license that was 20 years old and expired. So he hadn't flown a plane in 20 years, especially not a newer plane and not for anything even remotely like a King Air. He only flew Cessnas. Nothing was sensationalized for ratings. It really was a bad situation. Not to mention that his wife's and two daughters lives were in his hands. He did, however, get his pilots license renewed after the incident.

  • Who is this stupid bitch commentator?

  • @ToolFan68 good point!

  • So, a guy named Hani Hanjour who fails a basic Cessna course pulls of the most amazing turn in aviation history of a 757 and crashes a Boeing in to the pentagon at 70 ft? See what other 757 pilots have to say about this bullshit. We are asleep at the wheel.

  • @rikkus67 You are so nuts. You know not what you talk about my friend. Once you get your silly Cessna license and then land a Beechcraft King Air 200 with no experience then you can pop-off on you-tube you idiot.
