What was the last stupid thing you did?

Quit flying

Ok.I will give you that.Most plesure pilots are fairly inexperianced.However
like any thing else;it depends on the indevidual where saftey is concerned.
I would not let my wife near one.Ha,Ha,.

Please. I don't mean to offend professional, well trained pilots. My
problem is with the knuckleheads who spend the $4000 bucks and take the 21
day flight training school, and then wreak havoc. I quickly realized
(about 15 hours in the little C-150) you CANNOT on a part-time basis
become skilled enough to be safe. Since I can't train regularly, I
thought the smart move was to leave it to the pros, such as yourself. But
those stupid flight schools are so desperate for cash they will try to
convince anyone that they can BECOME A PILOT! How totally irresponsible.
I could care less if these people want to kill themselves, but they are
endangering others....including more experienced pilots.

I have a good friend who is a GA pilot (even though he can't figure out
how to use his new GPS), and he is waaaaaaaaay overconfident. I just
hope I don't read about him in the NTSB stats page one day....

later.

I have no quarell with professional pilots such as yourself. Its the
weekend idiots who are buzzing peoples homes and wreaking havoc on the
ground that I have a beef with.

Why.I am safer now . And much more skilled.Ok Gorge Ill Quit.

Jersy? Would that be New Jersey? Why are you going from central Virginia to

Mine have improved too. It's easy to figure we've got a reserve and
forget about it. That's fine if we always stop when we get to the
reserve. To use the reserve for what it's there for, requires some
skill and attention.

Because we fly, we envy no one.

Flying up to TRI from central Virginia is a very very longgggg trip !
Might be easier next time to fly south ( down). Takes alot less fuel that
way!

Yes, you did. TRI is Bristol, Tennessee. In over 15 years of flying around New
Jersey, I've never heard of a tricities airport in the State. What's the
official name and ID?

Well, I don't know about that. Isn't TRI further from the center of the
earth than central Virginia? The earth being banana shaped, and all?
