This is exactly the point I have been arguing, and why I stopped flying.


I suspect you stopped flying not because of any moral imperative, but
that you felt you just couldn't cut it. I'm curious to know how far
along you were in your PPL training when you had your great revelation.

Once a month ain't gonna cut it, but you'd still be legal.


If you're a competant VFR pilot flying once a month, while not ideal,
does not automatically make you dangerous. If you try to fly IFR in
crummy weather, that's a different story.


The AOPA should stop promoting the fiction of how easy it is to fly. They should
say it is easy to get your ticket.


Apparently it's not so easy, after all - you couldn't get it done...


Oh well as the saying goes (it was about lawyers but I will adapt it):
98% of the pilots give the rest a bad name.


More whining from a quitter. If ya can't join 'em, bash 'em - right
