Very experienced professional pilot flying. Low vis though, which probably accounts for the weird pattern entry, but that tight turn at the end in a jet likely having power issues, not good.

He also said the C550 would be perfectly maneuverable with one engine fwiw.

Greg's wife texted her mom " we're in trouble " . Confirmed by her mom . So it sounds like they knew something was wrong and it was serious . Do private planes have cockpit recorders ?

CVR was found at the site and on the way to DC.
I read there were three pilots on board. Not sure if that includes Biffle. |

^^^ Yep... that's local reports... GB would be one of the three with no speculation on who was the actual pilot.
It's probably known by now... just not public info imo. |
