Originally published at: NTSB Details U.S. Senator L-39 Off-Field Landing
Preliminary report says the aircraft was substantially damaged during a gear-up landing near Ennis, Montana.
Wow - that sounds like they made a really smooth touchdown and slid. Nicely done. Challenging call - eject or land - made under a lot of pressure, with an excellent outcome. Hat’s off to them.
Sen. Tim Sheehy is a member of the US Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee. The investigation will likely tread lightly.
That will be a tough investigation since like so many MAGAt Trump fellators his credibility is near zero.
Gunshot Wound Inconsistency:** Federal records indicated that a bullet lodged in his arm was from a 2015 incident in Glacier National Park, where he told a park ranger he accidentally shot himself, rather than in combat as he later claimed
Plagiarism Allegations:** An analysis by the dailymontanan.com found that 4 passages in his 2023 book, “Mudslingers: A True Story of Aerial Firefighting,” appeared to be lifted from outside sources without proper attribution.
Business and Financial Scrutiny:** His company, Bridger Aerospace, faced scrutiny over its financial health, with reports of “substantial doubt” regarding its ability to continue, even while he received large bonuses.
Controversial Remarks:** Sheehy faced backlash for derogatory comments about Native Americans and for suggesting that federal lands should be “turned over” to states, sparking concerns about privatization.
Misleading Accusations:** He was accused of doctoring footage in a campaign commercial and misrepresenting his business success
SteveR. We didn’t know Libtards could fly. How do you keep a medical with such a horrible diagnosis of TDS? Leave your freaking twisted views off this forum.
Pot, Kettle. You obviously also suffer from terminal TDS.
Well executed forced landing with minimal damage to pilots and plane. Best possible outcome. It will be instructive to see what caused the engine to shut down in this single-engine jet with no plane-parachute.
So posting verifiable facts are now “libtard TDS”. Well that tracks.
Noted.
You know, gasbag, a big mug of Jim Jones Kool-Aid will cure your TDS and make you more tolerable; try it and report back.
“That will be a tough investigation since like so many MAGAt Trump fellators his credibility is near zero.” Show the facts in this statement, perpetually angry libtard. Maybe you need to change your tampon, Timmy.
Like many a/c, the Aero Vodochody L-39 has legacy issues that may be revealed during the investigation. Let’s leave politics aside since political affiliation isn’t required to earn a pilot’s license.
There it is. The angry little 12 year old snowflake.
None of you folks ever reply with verifiable information just pounding on your keyboard posting nonsense to “own the libs”. Something you never do.
You got nothing so you deflect, name call, and stomp your feet.
STFU the adults are having a conversation.
All the info in the aforementioned (big word, I know) post id true.
But, as usual, you can’t handle the truth.

“a big mug of Jim Jones Kool-Aid” & “try it and report back”
Cracked me up, great post!
