hmmm seems suspicious indeed, as in maybe this pilot knew the plane was faulty and didn't want to fly with it himself

[Denver]

They were exposed to harmful levels of carbon monoxide in the plane which could have been a reason why it crashed

why wasn't the AAIB's final report on this discussed in this topic?


but anyway that one was published in March 2020

It concluded that the pilot David Ibbotson was not licensed to fly the plane as his rating had expired in November 2018, and that he was not qualified to fly at night. The investigation stated that "neither the plane nor the pilot had the required licences or permissions to operate commercially." The report concluded that Sala would have been "deeply unconscious" due to carbon monoxide poisoning at the time of the crash, but that Ibbotson was still conscious and in control of the plane up to the time of the crash.

most important bits from that final report
