Reports out of New York are surfacing that a Pilot flew an aircraft even when he knew that the plane had issues.

As he was about to takeoff, he knew that there were issues with the control and rudders. The pilot said that there were problems with the rudder not functioning in the right manner and that he had a hard time maintaining control as he was flying the plane.

He told investigators that he knew of this issue before even taking off.

An FAA investigator looked at the aircraft afterwards and confirmed that there was damage done to the wing, that were as a result of the rudder system in place.
