Quite so. His statement that he checked all this from his home PC
where there is no audit history doesn't hold up.

How do you know? A forensic examination of his hard drive might
confirm his statement.

I think that the matter of checking the weather is a very minor part of
these circumstances. One is not required to check weather in any
particular manner, and it doesn't appear that this pilot's flight path was
influenced by weather issues in any way. I don't even understand why the
FAA threw that issue onto the pile, given the other charges.

Cops, federal or local, throw everything into the pot, then "cut the deck".
The schmucks lawyer, I think, was trying to provide an overall alibi to
deflect the overall air of negligence (or whatever the proper legalistic
jargon is).
