Or, conversely the numbers of deaths of military pilots due to

IIRC, Ed, only in prohibited airspace can a mil pilot not expect to
encounter a civil VFR.


That is what we have restricted areas for -- not to be done in congested
airspace.



Which is it, Orv?


I'm sure you are intelligent enough to parse Orval's meaning; you're
just being deliberately obtuse, right?

GA aircraft don't enter Prohibited Areas, thus they aren't found
there. Restricted areas were created for hazardous military
operations; terminal airspace is congested and inappropriate for
hazardous military operations.

If I can understand his meaning, surely someone who possesses your
towering intellect should have no trouble comprehending his meaning.
