Do you flight plan?

This suggests that a cache of fuel shipped down to McMurdo earlier this
year might not have been a bad way to spend some money. Even if he might
have spent some more money shipping it all home again.


And what is that cache of fuel supposed to be shipped IN? What if THAT mission
got buggered for some other reason? There's a point at which things just get
too complicated and the chance of mishap increases.

Darn it! We really must do something to make minimally-planned
recreational flights near the poles less of a hassle.

How are people going to follow "in the tradition of Lindbergh,
Amelia Earhardt, Ruttan, Yeager and all the other cutting-edge
adventurous courageous spirits who set out to test themselves
and their flying machines" if they have to put a bunch of effort
into logistics?
