The businessman who organised the flight which crashed into the English Channel killing footballer Emiliano Sala never checked whether the pilot was qualified to fly the plane, an inquest heard.
Sala, 28, died alongside 59-year-old pilot David Ibbotson when the Piper Malibu aircraft crashed into the sea near Guernsey during a flight from France to Wales in January 2019.
The Argentinian striker had just signed for Premier League club Cardiff City in a £15 million transfer from French Ligue One side Nantes.
