"Kennedy, the 38-year-old son and namesake of America's 35th president, was flying with his wife, Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, 33, and his sister-in-law, Lauren Bessette, 34, when his six-seat, single-engine Piper Saratoga crashed seven miles south of his Martha's Vineyard home. All three were killed.
A report by the National Transportation Safety Board blamed pilot error for the crash, saying Kennedy, who had been flying for 15 months, was not skilled enough for low-visibility nighttime flying and became disoriented in the hazy sky."
The Assassination of JFK Jr - Full Version
Poster Comment:
John John Had been flying for 17 years, he had already passed the quals for IFR, and his instructors all said that he was "methodical in his planning".
They murdered him, folks.
And I'm still sick about it.
If you don't have 1:46:48 to watch the video now, please bookmark it and watch it later. The skullduggery surrounding this plane crash is even more obvious than when they murdered his father.
John F. Kennedy, Jr. obtained his private pilot certificate in April 1998. He received a "high performance airplane" sign-off in his Cessna 182 in June 1998 and a "complex airplane" sign-off in the accident airplane (Piper Saratoga) in May 1999. Although he completed the FAA's written airplane instrument examination about four months before the accident, he did not possess an instrument rating.
Junior's estimated total flight experience, excluding simulator training, was about 310 hours, of which 55 hours were at night. The pilot's estimated flight time in the accident airplane was about 36 hours, of which 9.4 hours were at night. Approximately three hours of that flight time was without a certified flight instructor on board, and about 0.8 hour of that time was flown at night, which included a night landing. You are giving him credit for 17 years of flying time, which is totally misleading and irrelevant. As anyone can see, his RECORD is 310 hours total time as PIC.
Also passing a written IFR ticket exam is not that difficult, passing the instrument flight check is totally different. Junior got himself into a situation that was far beyond his capabilities, VFR rated only and in very marginal VFR conditions.
I would tend to agree. My father was a Flight Instructor so I know that green pilots do sometimes make stupid mistakes in judgment and they can be fatal. One student my father taught killed himself and his two sons when he tried to duplicate a barnstorming trick, without my father's experience, that my father had done in a moment of showing off. I think my father always felt responsible for it because if he hadn't flown under that bridge his student might not have thought to try it. Sad.
However, stupid beginner pilot stunts aside the circumstances around JFK Jr.'s "crash" seem to be disturbingly clear.
The one that has always stood out for me was that just before his plane went down he had radioed the tower at Martha's Vineyard letting them know he had the landing field lights in sight and was beginning his final approach. That directly contradicts the assertion that he was lost in a cloud bank resulting in his spiraling out of control. Yes, if you lose your orientation, and don't know how to use the artificial horizon, you can go into a death spiral. However, from the radio contact with the tower that would appear to NOT be the case.
What did occur was that he began his descent and then abruptly lost contact and plummeted almost straight down. That is consistent with Sherman Skolnick's assertion that it was likely a barometric bomb in the tail section which blew the plane's tail off along with the control surfaces when he began his descent and passed below the trigger level.
Also interesting was that the debris from the plane was never in public view. It was recovered from the ocean and kept under guard at a military base (shades of the WTC 1&2 debris Batman). As well the bodies were quickly cremated without autopsy. Could it be that autopsy would have shown injuries from an explosion?

I believe that the mystery man instructor (who was strapped into the missing seat) turned off the fuel valve and put the plane into a dive so quickly that John had no time to counter the pre-programmed suicide order. Once the plane was in a dive the instructor's body weight and stiff arms against the control yoke would have made it impossible for John to pull the plane out of the dive.
Also, The debris field was such that everything was recoverable unless it was edible or otherwise of interest to sea creatures. The missing seat should have been among the debris.
There was no explosion necessary because (in my opinion) a Manchurian ewe gno watt with access to the controls was on board.
Look, these days anytime that anything happens whereby there's even a hint of a political motive one must absolutely assume that the Tyranny was involved. Look at their legislation and EOs for cryin' out loud, they pretty much state that stuff like you just referenced is legal now. The difference between then and now, they weren't so bold.
Right you are my friend.
There was a time not so long ago when we had to keep our suspicions and our anti govt sentiments to our damned selves. There was no help from the "respectable media" and any state worshipers could simply yell out upon discovering our "treason" and obligatory lynch mobs could be formed on the spot.
But now that ready proof and documentation are available on the net the stoopids keep their pie holes shut (unless we're foolish enough to expose our feelings in places where they have a home court advantage, i.e., VFWs, bowling alleys, porn theaters, massage parlors, PROMISE KEEPERS rallies, etc.,.)
And, yet, there is still a genetic strain of mutants who believe that any lie we cannot immediately disprove in the course of a thread discussion is the same as the gospel truth. (Shoonra)
And in the past at other now-defunct websites (such as Liberty Forum) the only peeps who performed that valuable service were Zionists, Jews, and Zionist Jews, or their little Goy helpers. And, the pattern of defending a rotten to the core govt in discussions that were only tangentially related to Israel if at all was obviously intended to derail any attempts to de-legitimize the Rockefeller-Plutocratic, oak-lined meeting room form of govt.
Even though there is no historical precedent to light the path in defeating an enemy of sovereign self govt, there is no precedent that demonstrates a guaranteed victory for them, either. And, each time they heap another abusive rule change on us in the courtrooms and at airports they catch their breaths and hope that their actions don't ignite a flash fire that they cannot stamp out with their gilded wingtip ballet slippers.
The thought of that and of the imminent collapse of the almighty Bretton Woods Hebe buck ($) gives me a nice, warm glow all over.
My only concern is not that I may end up living in a large concrete sewer pipe, but that some of the peeps I've argued with about the issues may not live to see the crumbling of Kosher Konfidence-backed Kurrency as it goes the way of the Zimbabwe-Mugabe dollar. (Excuse me but, do you have change for a fifty trillion dollar note? My kids' school bus driver demands exact change only.")
