My condolences to family and friends of the three who lost their lives.

Many years ago I was about to run into comparable trouble at Rotterdam
Airport: 8 km visibility and temp well above dewpoint at take-off.
Nevertheless, when flying to the East (away from the shore) at 1000 ft I
met severe haze, had scarcely any horizon, fortunately no fogging up!
Within 10 minutes I was back at the airport. So far my experience with
poor visibility coming up in a whiff.

I cannot overestimate how important it is to do at least one IF lesson
at the earlierst useful point in training.

Different subject:
A cross-probing on "wrong stuff" and "gene hudson" in Google yielded the
following:

It may be of some use.

Best regards: Johan E. Mebius (former private pilot)

I wrote an article about this that was published in Plane and Pilot ,
called "The Wrong Stuff." It is available to view on my website at
www.genehudson.com if you care to read more about this stuff.



Couldn't find the article there. I found where it was listed with other
articles, and many of those other articles are clickable links which take
you into their content, but "The Wrong Stuff" is not clickable.
