I think someone needs to take away his keys to the airplane...

May years ago, my dad, an aging private pilot, began to worry the rest of the family a lot because his decreasing alertness, vision, and reaction time made his flying less and less safe. We finally had to stage a sort of intervention, in which we all expressed our concerns, and by the end of it he had agreed - reluctantly - to give up flying and sell his plane - and shortly after that he began boating lessons and eventually bought a Grand Banks trawler, which took him and my mother on many great cruising trips.

I think maybe Harrison Ford has reached that point.

Sad (for him) that it has come to this. It’ll be interesting to find out what the FAA decides in this case.

My first car was a MGA twin camm coupe with a blueprinted engine, auxiliary oil cooler and close ratio gearbox that won Pikes Peak. I quickly added the last known 1100 CC Austion Mini Cooper S ( RHD) and a Jowet Jupiter. Brit cars were cheap as everyone wanted 60s muscle cars. I was taught to properly drive them by a former Jaguar leMans raceworks mechanic and no less than Phil Hill who acquired the Jowet for a period 5 point harness, sorting out the Mini's Lucas electrics and more lessons up at Willow Springs with the VRCCA.
I'm cruising Old Mulholland Drive here in Ventura. A piss yellow Ferrari GT 250 almost ran me off the road roaring up on a blind curve and finding me there. I saw a personalised plate reading THE FOOL ( from the tarot deck) and my youthfull adrenaline overcame common sense. I shocked him coming back up on his tail with those close gears and on the next curve broke out the rear end into a drift squirting past him; RHD allowing me the opportunity to extend my Graham Hill driving gloved middle finger almost in his face. He ran off onto a gravel escape lane for big rigs and I saw lots of pebbles ruining his paintjob.
Later on I discovered his identity in a PLAYBOY article about this popular actor of an acting dynsasty and his yellow ferrari with THE FOOL plates, no driver's license and how he paid off multiple accident victims but was this hot actor with his TV series.
Years later I'm housesitting in Topanga Canyon just below the home of Kieth Carradine. Another yellow ferrari roars up the very narrow road and I see David staring openmouthed at this brit car.
There are a lot of older and entitled people in SOCAL doing some pretty risky things to the populace. But we have an even greater number of young ones who have decades to wreak
havoc.
I miss Steve McQueen. He was an outstanding driver and pilot, plain cool guy ( I met him twice) who thought my old MGA was a trip to drive.

Yeah, someone needs to jerk them back into reality. They are actors, basically people who pretend to be something they aren't. That doesn't give them the right to endanger others. Just the opposite to my way of thinking. They need to set an example.

Please let us now how this works out.

I agree, take the keys.

KAV, you could have named names instead of just the plate. It's because folks won't name names and shine a light onto the cockroaches that empowers them to think they are something they aren't.

I did. At the time He was just some jerk who couldn't drive a Ferrari and a racework MG taught KUNG FU a lesson.

David Carradine, grasshopper.

:-) Yup, I caught it that time. Not everyone who visits me is family so I couldn't relate.

I thought I had posted a reply here but I guess not, must be age related forgetfulness In any case, there is a video of Ford's landing on one of my aviation related Instagram feeds. I'll try to locate it and let you know. Its a bit frightening to watch him come in happily oblivious to the reckless endangerment he's causing.

Marko, I can't tell you the number of times I've done that.

I saw it on TV and it was just incredible. He reminded me of the older folks who should have their keys taken away after they try to brake and step on the gas. "The more I tried to brake the faster I went. There must be something wrong with the car.".

I googled the video and got a 2fer.

Statin drugs for high cholesteral have bee linked to leg cramps and loss of feeling and confusion. A lot of older people having these crashes on are satins. I told my doctor I'd pass, lower mine with those nasty grapefruit that interact with Statins. I did. Then she told me not to eat egg yolks.
