What information would every pilot know, but a civilian wouldn't that would show them to be a fraud if they didn't know it?

He was trying to avoid flying over restricted airspace (bunkers full of nukes). Still a major asshole for flying like an idiot and getting the crew killed.

Airplane landing at Van Nuys Airport. Can anyone identify the make and model from this angle?

"Remaining in the pattern" means close enough that an engine failure doesn't leave your plane wrecked 1/4 mile from the runway.

There is a flight school that shows up at my airport that just loves to do 1 mile downwinds past the thresholds. I am starting to think that the CFIs are trying to milk their students.

No, after they finished recording the safety video, they made him collect all of his belongings and stuff it in seabag, and they threw him off the carrier in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

I saw the full video on the Discovery channel. During his interview-- his face looks like he got in a fight with Mike Tyson-- he tells the cameraman that he didn't strap on his chin strap, hence why the helmet fucked up the engine without the rest of him. He was training for the position and was tired, so he didn't stay low enough as he should have, and that is why he got sucked into the engine.

I brought this up to my colleagues. The first one said f*ck that I won't fly, the second one said I don't see the problem with that, airline pilots use autopilot to fly the planes already. I had to inform him that, while that is true, the pilots sometimes have to revert to hand flying because the autopilot or other autonomous systems malfunction during flight that passengers aren't briefed on.
