yup - same folks that hotshoe’ d it up here when that goof in a Cessna wandered into Airforce One airspace a few years ago. I believe  they were the ones scrambled for that verified mystery UFO jet coming up the coast too. They have had an exciting few years...

Well that’s one way of not going to prison. They didn’t report his death yet...

Would have been a heck of a site running up the I5 corridor. I bet they were hustling too.

My pilot friend said it was a mechanic. I guess they know how to run the planes and taxi them around. Flying an empty dash 8 is not that hard, the landing did not appear to be in this guys plans.

I’m kinda surprised we haven’t seen reports of sonic boom as they came up - they were full super sonic for the Air Force One incident.  My boss at the time lived well south of Seattle at the time and heard them - didn’t realize what it was until later.
