I've been following the Lake Clark plane crash case, and something just doesn't sit right with me about the visibility issue. Given that Longerbeam wasn't instrument rated, flying into areas with freezing fog seems risky, even if conditions were initially fine. I can't help but wonder if there was more pressure than usual to fly that day, either from the passengers or external commitments. It's just tough to grasp how someone would take such a chance with unpredictable weather if there wasn't some form of urgency. Also, it's puzzling there hasn't been more of a push for technological advancements in underwater recovery for situations like this. With the lack of physical evidence and the undetermined cause, it feels like there are too many unanswered questions. Anyone else have thoughts on how pilot decision-making impacts these kinds of tragedies?
