Air Force Studies Autonomous Cargo Jets - AVweb

The weather was IFR at Burbank yet company ops specs required it to be VFR (or better). Very simple decision if one has the right mindset. He should have punched the 180 button (assuming it was safe to go back), or at least have landed at Burbank. He flew through controlled airspace at KBUR knowing very well that he was breaking his ops specs rules. The same rules that were designed to keep his passengers safe. It’s one thing to get caught in un-forecast low vis then land, and an entirely different issue to continue in those conditions. Bad pilot decisions and terrible to non-existent company supervision. Off course the company was unsafe!
