I wonder whether the man could sue Google for defamation because they've asserted that he's done something and taken an action as a result of that. As a result they're defaming him. I'm not a lawyer and definitely not su

I reckon I could do most of those things except transmit to ATC and squawk. I suspect I could google the rest or call someone to tell me how to. If there's a manual up there, then maybe that will have info?
