In Argentina, the instructor bailed out of the aircraft in flight.
The unexpected and suspicious incident that occurred during the flight training of the Argentine flight school left the entire country in shock. Zamin.uz reported this.
According to information provided by local prosecutorial authorities, this incident took place in the sky over the city of Toledo in Argentina.
On that day, instructor Leandro Andres Bertatsso, who was conducting a flight lesson in the training aircraft, unexpectedly told his 22-year-old student Rozarioga what to do and then jumped out of the plane himself. The student, who had a private pilot license, did not lose himself in the difficult situation, and quickly contacted the dispatchers at the flight school in Cordoba.
Specialists provided him with necessary instructions via radio communication. Despite being under strong psychological pressure, the student managed to safely land the aircraft at the airfield.
The leadership of the flight school highly praised the student's actions and specifically noted his composure and professionalism. Unfortunately, as a result of the search efforts, the instructor's body was found in one of the rural areas of Cordoba province.
Official authorities confirmed his death and launched extensive investigation activities regarding the incident. According to available information, the deceased instructor had been undergoing treatment due to mental health problems in recent times.
However, no one else, including his colleagues and students at his workplace, was aware of this situation except for his close relatives. His colleagues and students stated that they had not noticed any suspicious behavior in his actions.
Experts noted that technically, opening the airplane door during flight is very difficult, and this is comparable to opening the door of a high-speed moving car. Nevertheless, the aircraft did not suffer serious damage.
Currently, law enforcement authorities continue to investigate why this experienced pilot made such a decision and are examining all the details of the incident.
