This pilot had previously posted a photo revealing she had flown Lenny on a similar route the doomed jet took ... and the internet decided that was enough evidence to declare the 62-year-old rocker dead.
In response to the rumors, Lenny's team told TMZ in a statement, "The reports are untrue and incorrect."
The incorrectly identified pilot added her own statement on TikTok ... telling the world, "I was recently made aware that there are rumors that I was the pilot of the recent crash in Palm Beach. I would like to respectfully clarify I was not. I ask that people please stop speculating and spreading misinformation on this tragedy and be respectful of those involved. My heart goes out to all those lost and affected.”
As we reported ... the private jet carrying 9 people crashed just 8 miles from Mar-a-Lago. All 9 people on board were killed.
Horrifying dispatch audio revealed the plane's final moments ... and captured a woman yelling out, "Holy f***, we're out of time."
The co-pilot has since been identified as a 20-year-old woman who earned her pilot's license before graduating high school.
