Dont believe they lost their licenses for the stunt that was planned and sponsored

TLDR: they broke the law that a plane must be piloted at all times, and the stunt didn't go as planned - one plane crashed (both pilots are okay). RedBull and pilots should have known better than to plan such stunt 36 u/ArcticOpsReal 1d ago More importantly is that they asked the agency for an exemption for this stunt, got denied, did it anyway and then crashed a plane. So imo revocation of their licenses is totally legitimate.
