DUDE! The guy was NOT instrument competent, and there is NOTHING in your link that indicates otherwise! WHY is that so difficult for you to understand?
Half of an instrument course, does NOT an instrument pilot make!
Let me ask you this, if the CFI quoted above, had told you what he said about Johns capability, would YOU have flown with him on that route, on that night?
If your answer is yes, God help you.

Where did the CFI state that it was elitist idiocy??
Of course, after the accident, his CFI would say that he wouldn't 'feel comfortable' with the flight....
We will never know what he said to JFK Jr
before the accident...
You see Larry, I have read the entire report, and although there are indications that the decision to fly that night was not a good one, I have yet to see anything supporting your allegations that the decision was made by a cocky, elitist, know-it-all.
As usual, you are trying to back away from your completely unfounded assertions and made up BS to reframe your argument into something which is only borderline ridiculous.....
What were the flight conditions again??? IFR or VFR??
