    Default So A Guy That's Never Flown Does This?

    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    if he watched this video then yes.

    my dad and uncle were both pilots. They said taking off and flying is easy....landing on the other hand.

    Incidentally, my uncle was killed in a plane crash. Dad hasnt flown since. That was in the 80's

    I assume as commercial pilots, they were going through the proper checklist as given by the manufacturer, but I bet you could wing it so long as you could start it and apply power. Like said above, the takeout is probably fairly easy, the landing on the other hand...

    There are also a lot of high fidelity flight sims out there that take you through the process.

    Yeah, I wouldn't think it would have a 'key' so to speak.

    Just another sad example of when a person has nothing to lose they can do some extraordinary things and it is near impossible to stop.
