Here's the link to the NTSB brief of the accident. Incredible how
someone like that slipped through the cracks for so long. Obviously the
pilot/owner was a weasel with a spotty record that shouldn't have been
in the air in *any* airplane, never mind a MU-2 IMHO.

Speaking of people slipping through the cracks. Here is part of the full
narrative on a accident that happened here Jan of 1999.

"According to FAA medical records, the pilot was issued a third class
medical certificate on January 24, 1997. The last pilot logbook entry was
dated April 19, 1998. According to the pilot logbook, the most recent
biennial flight review occurred on April 16, 1988. Additionally, there was
no record of an instrument competency check, nor any record of instrument
flight rules currency."

One addition to the above. Word is the Doctor that died in this crash didn't
have a driver's lic. either.
