Interesting video re tragic jet crash in Mesa last month
Guy does a good job breaking down the accident, explaining everything with the Jet seemed normal, there were no warning indicator messages during takeoff to suggest aborting, and for some unknown reason the pilot chose to abort takeoff well past the point of no return.

The one interesting piece was that there were earlier reports that Rustin Randall was piloting the plane, but only Spencer Lindahl was certified to pilot it. Makes you wonder if Rustin was learning to fly this Jet but not certified yet, and if that contributed to the decision to abort.

Overall the video was good, except the for the unnecessary comments at the end about being a rich guy and not hiring a professional pilot to fly for them. There is no indication that Spencer wasn't sufficiently experienced to fly it.

Just a terrible tragedy, reminds you life is precious and can end at any moment, and cherish it while you can. My heart goes out to these people's family and friends.
