AN FO ON A WESTWIND 1124; FLYING WITH THE PIC WHO WAS THE CEO AND THE OWNER OF THIS CPR ACFT; DESCRIBED AN UNORTHODOX PAX DROP-OFF AND DEP FROM PDK.

Narrative

THE PIC WAS THE OWNER OF A COMPANY AND I BELIEVE THIS ACFT BELONGS TO HIM AND IT IS FOR SALE. WE HAD LEFT KNOXVILLE; TN; ON AN IFR FLT TO PDK; GA; WITH 5 PAX ON BOARD. TAXI OUT; TKOF; AND CLB TO CRUISE ALT WERE ALL NORMAL. WHEN GIVEN THE CLRNC OF 8000 FT MSL AT DEHAN INTXN; ON THE AWSON ARR TO PDK; THE PIC WAS NOT PAYING CLOSE ENOUGH ATTN TO HIS INSTS AND WAS ONLY ABLE TO CROSS DEHAN AT 10000 FT; INSTEAD OF THE REQUIRED 8000 FT. ZTL INQUIRED TO SEE IF WE WERE GOING TO MAKE IT AND HE SAID WE WERE NOT BECAUSE IT WAS GIVEN TO US TOO LATE. THE CTLR CAME BACK AND REMINDED HIM THAT HE HAD ALMOST 30 MI TO DO IT AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN NO PROB. THE CTLR THEN GAVE US A TURN EASTERLY AND THE PIC WAS FINALLY ABLE TO MAKE THE 8000 FT RESTR BEFORE ENTERING ATL APCH CTL AIRSPACE. WE MADE AN ILS TO RWY 20L AND A SUCCESSFUL AND UNEVENTFUL LNDG. AS WE WERE TAXIING IN; HE SHUT DOWN THE L ENG AS WE WERE ONLY GOING TO DROP THE PAX AND REPOS TO LZU; GA; ARPT. BY THE TIME I INSURED THE PAX HAD ALL OF THEIR BELONGINGS AND GOT THE MAIN DOOR CLOSED; THE PIC HAD ALREADY STARTED THE L ENG AND GUNNED THE PWR WITH A HARD R TURN LEAVING THE RAMP; WHICH ROLLED ME COMPLETELY DOWN THE AISLE. BY THE TIME I GOT UP AND CHKED MY HEAD TO INSURE I WAS NOT BLEEDING BECAUSE I HAD BUMPED IT ON SOMETHING AND GOT BACK INTO THE COPLT SEAT; HE HAD TRAVELED APPROX TO THE CTR OF THE ARPT; TAXIING TO RWY 2R. AT THAT TIME; GND CTL CAME ON AND ASKED WHERE WE WERE GOING. AS I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE INITIAL TAXI INSTRUCTIONS; I MOTIONED FOR HIM TO ANSWER GND CTL. AS IT TURNED OUT; WE HAD BEEN CLRED TO TAXI TO RWY 20L AND NOT RWY 2R. WE THEN TURNED AROUND AND FINALLY MADE IT TO THE APCH END OF RWY 20L FOR OUR TKOF. WE CALLED READY FOR DEP. AS IT WAS CREW ONLY; AND ROUGHLY 2000 LBS OF FUEL; OUR GROSS WT WAS APPROX 16000 LBS. APPROX 150-200 FT INTO THE AIR AFTER TKOF; THE PIC ROLLED THE ACFT INTO A ROUGHLY 55-60 DEG L BANK TO HDG OF 090 DEGS PER THE TWR'S INSTRUCTION. PDK TWR THEN INFORMED THE PIC NO TURNS ARE TO BE MADE ON THAT RWY UNTIL 400 FT; DUE TO NOISE RESTRS. ALL HE SAID WAS THAT HE WAS IN A HURRY. THEY STATED IT WAS NO EXCUSE AND TO CALL DEP. THE LNDG BACK AT LZU WAS UNEVENTFUL AND NORMAL. THIS WAS TRULY AN UNSAFE FLT FROM START TO FINISH FOR NOTHING MORE THAN HOT-RODDING OR BEING A COWBOY.
