The pilot did a 'walk of shame' off the plane after the shocking confession.
The Alaska Airlines/Skywest flight had to make a sudden diversion A plane was forced to make a sudden diversion after the pilot revealed he was not certified to land. The Alaska Airlines/Skywest flight was approaching Jackson Hole Airport in Wyoming on Thursday when the pilot made the confession from the cockpit. The plane was diverted to salt Lake City, Utah, where it landed safely, with another pilot replacing the unqualified pilot and taking off to the intended destination.
‘All pilots involved were qualified to fly and land the aircraft; the flight diverted from Jackson Hole due to an internal administrative error and out of abundance of caution.’ One Reddit user, who goes by the username ‘babecityrecords’ claimed he was on the flight with his girlfriend when the pilot revealed he did not have the correct qualification.
