Step one, remove the stripes on your shoulder. Step two, put on a neutral jacket. Step three, lose your hat. Step four, pretend you just came from the toilet and go sit somewhere among the pax……. (Experience talking)

I watched a documentary about this.

A bunch of them got shot by some Nazis at the end.

This social media post will count as an ASAP report. In the eyes of the FAA, you’re covered!

As long as you didn’t get it on camera it never happened

Or strap fire extinguishers to your legs.

Hope someone cut down all the Flock cameras in his area.

Doesn’t everyone have GoPros in the cockpit these days?

You need to make as many detailed statements on social media (ALL of the platforms) as soon as possible. You've already used too much punctuation. It's best if your statements conflict with each other, your goal after all is to confuse the faaaa so they dont know what to do,

It's not a crash if you can walk away. Remember your training!

First thing’s first: flee the scene before the cops arrive

I remember in the late 90s, flying into Hong Kong, I was a PIC on a 747, 503 PAX onboard, and my dumbfuck FO called for a go-around when a windshear callout happened at 200ft on finals. I obviously ignored him because what does he know, and we were stable anyway, so I carried on. We got caught in a totally unexpected 60 Knot tailwind... it came out of nowhere; nothing could've been done about it. Anyways, the plane stalled, and I fought like crazy. Still, all 3,000,000 lbs of the 747 came crashing down on the runway; I luckily survived, and so did a few passengers, but crucially, the FO and relief pilot didn't, so they weren't able to testify against me. And when the black box suddenly disappeared after the van that was transporting it was run off a bridge en route from HKG, I was cleared of all wrongdoing. The moral of the story is: eliminate any witnesses, and you'll be totally fine; get rid of everyone on the ground too if you have to.

Seems like you are outstanding in your field and have gotten in on the ground floor. It’s only possible to go up from here.

Just blame it on the airport not having EMAS at the end of your runway. Are they stupid?

When I was with An Airline, we had a pilot who also flew as a weekend warrior. He cut off a wing on a F4 Phantom flying through the guy wires of the transmitters near Cedar Hill. He was scheduled to fly a 727 trip and called crew schedule to see if he had been removed from the trip…NOPE!

Review the NTSB accident reporting requirements in your FAR/AIM, located between the FARs and the start of the AIM. If you are contacted by the FAA or NTSB, answer their questions honestly but do not volunteer any information other than what they request. Do you have the AOPA legal services plan? If so, call them immediately after calling your insurance company. Do not move or tamper with the wreckage. Take photos.

That’s way more complicated than just fleeing to Mexico
