He was the copilot. The CASA C-212 has a fixed landing gear and it lost the starboard wheel. That model plane also has sliding glasses on the port and starboard side of the cockpit. Since it happened 15 miles away from the airport my guess is that when they got the alert that they had lost the wheel the copilot opened the glass and leaned out to try and see for sure if it was gone or it was a bad sensor read. When he did that the wind slip probably pulled him out.
Bullshit, I'll bet the pilot was paid off by Pfizer to avoid another clot shot death.
I'm sure we'll never hear what actually happened from the pilot though. It'll be memory holed.
