I read a significant amount of statistics based on the success of SFAR 71 which only applies to Hawian tours at this time. Actually I didn't write that, I was quoting AOPA. The increase in flight hours pertains only to private pilots conducting charitable fundraising flights, so SFAR 71 would not apply as a basis of comparison. As I recall (that means don't expect me to produce a reference); statistically, a 500-hour pilot is more dangerous than a 100-hour pilot. Vaughn (a 500-hour pilot) |
