let the help fly it

Getting a pilot license isn't cheap. So usually bored rich people get behind 'em controls. Whether it was an accident or not, Lidle endangered innocent lives and the FAA has no excuse for its lax rules.

There's a lot of emphasis on the tragic loss of a Yankee pitcher, but all I can see is an inexperienced dumbass who thought a plane that can pop a parachute is damn safe. Cory Lidle's widow and the FAA will be lucky if they don't get sued.
