Mr. Lidle had under 90 hours of logged flight time.
And it seems, that while everyone knew about his love of flight, flying was not permitted under his contract.
"Lidle's $6.3 million, two-year contract, signed with the Phillies in November 2004, contained a provision saying the team could get out of paying the remainder if he were injured or killed while flying a plane. Because the regular season is over, Lidle already had received the full amount."
