Don't underestimate old geezer pilots. They didn't get that way by
taking undue risks. Yeah, knowing how to fly an A/N range well is
kinda useless today, but there's a lot of stuff that's still as
valuable as ever.

I've taken a LOT of risks. Most calculated, many not. I was very lucky and
there's no doubt, but I seldom make the same mistake twice. i'm not that
old, BTW. Matt, as is usaly, has made assumptions that suits himself. I
started very young.
