Do you think I would be less safe in such an airplane, or would some
extra training be sufficient?

The insurance companies are not charities. The fact that the
insurance will cost you a bundle tells you that at least the insurance
company considers you less safe at low time, even if some chat members
don't.

Perhaps, and perhaps they are even correct. But I don't trust the
*******s!

I actually reached a point, in very early middle age, when I almost
believed
that all of their number crunching must obviously result in some sort of
usefull information, in an actuarial sense. However, I now trust them
about
as much as I did as a teenager.

Maybe it's time to move away from mom and dad...


Yuk, yuk...

As annoying as insurance companies can be, some of the people who routinely
attribute their own decisions to insurance and/or other regulations (which
are only rarely applicable) are a far greater irritant!

For a great example, see the current thread titled: "Can the airport ban
bicycles?" on this NG.
