One of the main suspects in the case that cost the life of the Argentine ace, Emiliano Sala, David Henderson, admitted today (18/10) before the court that he agreed to organize the flight that transported Sala even though the aircraft was not licensed to carry passengers.
The 66-year-old is facing criminal charges for negligence that could endanger the plane and for attempting to transport a passenger without a valid license. In the trial that started today (18/10) in Wales, he pleaded guilty to the second charge.
What he denies is that the pilot who eventually took over the flight, Andrew Ibotson, was not licensed for this type of aircraft and training to fly at night.
The trial began today in Cardiff, with the family of Emiliano Sala being absent from the proceedings.
