I feel certain Jay know the difference between being too tired to fly
safely, and being ragged out after a long day. This was a 17 minute flight,
remember, with another full and current pilot in the front seat with him.


Yeah, the second pilot in the plane is a great help most of the time.
When we flew around Australia with a group there were a couple of days I
wasn't really feeling well (I hate getting sick on vacation) so Ron
flew. If I had been single pilot I could have flown, I wasn't THAT
sick, but it was great no feeling like I had to fly.
