The pilot was a Duke University professor...he unfortunately did not survive. Condolences to his family and friends.

[@Howrider65]

RIP sir you passed away doing what you loved.

[@LAXTravels]

That is a wild situation!

[@rmshivo]

I'm curious how the instructor was giving proficiency test in an unfamiliar airplane

[@aardvarkusrex]

CFII was rating proficiency for instrument rating for pilot. He wasn't giving the guy a type rating.

[@mickemike2148]

That instructor sure appeared to be not cool with this.

[@joelvanleeuw5144]

instructor on an unfamiliar aircraft??

[@PilotPlater]

he was doing an IPC - instrument proficiency check. The pilot is qualified to fly his aircraft and the instructor/check airman is evaluating his ability to fly the instrument procedures. this is quite common as check airmen will fly all different types of aircraft regularly

A flight instructor on a plane he is not familiar with... Uggggh
