I read the NTSB reports because it makes me think about contingencies:
"what could/should/would I do if....."
I learned last summer that I won't think of something new while
experiencing a non-standard (hairy) situation, so playing 'what if' is
very useful to me.

There *may* be pilots around who think 'originally and well' under new &
stressful/hairy situations...but I've never encountered/heard/read of
one, yet.
