The Pilot stated that he did not think that he had made any errors by making the right turn toward the higher terrain given the circumstances and
that he had elected to pursue the services of an attorney to assist with completing the NTSB accident report.

FAA inspector determined that 'flight control continuity was established from the control yokes, through recovery cuts to all flight control surfaces with
no binding or mechanical anomalies notes. The engine was examined, and
no mechanical malfunctions or anomalies were found that would have precluded normal operation.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probably cause(s) of this accident to be:
The pilot's failure to maintain clearance from rising terrain while intentionally maneuvering the airplane at low altitiudes, which resulted in substantial damage to the fuselage and both wings.
FBI declined to press charges. District Attorney however charged Ahmed on five counts of menacing and six counts of reckless endangerment.
According to the sheriff's office, legislation enacted in 2021 "narrowed the definition of felony menacing; as a result, threatening immediate serious injury with a vehicle or aircraft is classified as a misdemeanor under current law"
Of course they have to lower the consequences for their animals, so they can cause more havoc and harm.
Ahmed fled the country shortly after the accident and a warrant for his arrest is now in effect, with the Larimer County Sheriff's Office asking the public for help in locating him.
"You'd think they would have kept track of a foreign pilot involved on an aircraft incident on 9/11, but I guess not."
