What I am, if you want to pigeon hole me, is an anti aviation
activist. I am in favor of much stricter rules governing GA. I flew
about 15 hours out of FRG, and realized that this is definitely not
for weekend warriors that occassionally take to the skies.


Exactly how many hours of driving did you have before you decided what
level of experience and consistency would be required to ensure proficiency
in that task?

At 15 hours of flying, you barely scraped the surface.

I find it interesting how you can make such a judgement when you have such
a limited exposure and lack of experience. What exactly is your anti-
aviation goal? What types of rules would you like to see governing GA? What
problem are you trying to solve? And what direct benefit will you see from
it?



I have encountered "Skylune's" type before. They are usually washouts
who have adopted a contemptuous, arrogant attitude toward those of us
who persevered and learned.

I doubt that "Skylune" even got to solo, because he just couldn't put it
all together. As a result, he believes that, since a "smart, fast
learner" like himself couldn't get it, the others who have persevered
and succeeded MUST have inferior abilities and therefore should not be
allowed into the hallowed skies.
