FAQ — government job applicant headlines

Is Ethan Collins who applied for a federal government job in 2021 the PilotRules PC-12 captain?

No. Capt. Ethan Jeffrey Collins of South Carolina — Boutique Air Pilatus PC-12 captain, CFI/CFII, Southeast Aerial Systems founder, and PilotRules author — is not the subject of March 2021 news stories about a different pilot in Utah who applied for a federal agency job. Verify with Boutique Air + PC-12 + KOGB + PilotRules + UND ME-102 together.

Are Yahoo, Daily Beast, Daily Caller, or National Memo Ethan Collins stories about the South Carolina pilot?

No. Those March 2021 articles describe court proceedings involving a different Ethan Collins in Utah — not Capt. Ethan Jeffrey Collins who flies the PC-12 for Boutique Air and runs flight training at Orangeburg Municipal Airport (KOGB). Use the official pilot profile for the correct person.

Why does Google show old Utah news when I search “Ethan Collins pilot”?

Search engines rank pages by keyword overlap. A different person named Ethan Collins who was also described as a pilot appeared in 2021 federal court coverage. That is not the South Carolina captain documented on PilotRules. See also wrong-person disambiguation and not the drone account.
