Aircraft missing half wing5/9/2023 ![]() Since part of flying for me is scanning the engine instruments, they often foretell engine failure, e.g, loss of engine oil pressure and rising CHTs or engine temperatures. When I see something happen that doesn’t make sense, my mind produces questions. By Monday, the video had attracted almost 100,000 views. The video ends with him climbing a mountain days later to launch a paraglider to finally spread the ashes of his friend. There’s more of him hiking out and finally running into other people. The cameras also cover what appears to be a crash sequence.Īfter landing in some scrub brush with a few cuts and scrapes, he makes his way to a crashed aircraft, with the camera still rolling. Video from three angles show him straining to open the door before diving headfirst behind the strut, never letting go of a selfie stick. There is commentary on the weather and reference to his deceased friend but no description of the circumstances of the alleged engine failure. He apparently took off from Lompoc Airport and the crash was reported to have taken place in Los Padres National Forest near Cayuma, California, about 50 miles north of Santa Barbara. 24 but posted a month later, Jacob says he’s flying to Mammoth to spread the ashes of a friend. We also contacted a woman with a similar name and address to those of the registered owner of the aircraft but have received no response. Jacob, whose YouTube channel says he has 126,000 subscribers, has not responded to an email request for comment.
