As much as I do love flying, it's certainly not worth getting killed or
maimed for (nor wrecking anyone else's life).
I take a picture of my wife along with me when I go flying. It helps remind
me that I have some good reasons to get my ass back home in one piece.
And since I promised her that I would not get myself killed with all this
crazy airplane stuff, it also reminds me that I better not crash, or else
I'll be in REAL trouble with her when I get back (alive or otherwise)!
YMMV.

Good day,
I got caught in some weather the other day and had to 180 outa there.
Punched up goto nearest on the Lowrance, put the Love Boat down, called
wifey for a ride home (three hours by car), and the airplane still sits at
the unscheduled stop waiting to finish the flight, probably tomorrow.
My question is this;
Why do you 180 instead of pressing on? What are your motivations? What
goes
through your head?
