Each pilot has to establish and evaluate their own risk assessment criteria,
but for me something that has a greater than 50% risk of death, even if
only 1% of the time, is an unacceptable risk. That's why I bought a
Cirrus in the first place.


While I'm glad this guy made it down relatively safely, I have to wonder
about this statement. It seems that I'm taking a greater risk than I thought
when I started this flying stuff. Is my death actually greater than 50%, 1%
of the time? I'm no math Wiz by any stretch of the imagination, but at ~300
hours, I seem to be living on borrowed time.
