Isn't that true of most of us?

When it comes to actions behind the controls of an airplane, I sure hope
not. You are supposed to have grown up, and take responsibilities
seriously, at that point.

As recently as under a year ago, some postings make me think that it has not
happened, yet, for this individual.

Don't give him a free pass, Jose. I don't think he has earned it.



People *can* change. When I was 25, I used to enjoy buzzing. Making somebody
jump out a boat into the water was the height of entertainment to me. Now, I
can't imagine doing something stupid like that. I like the maximum amount of
air between me and the ground unless I'm landing. All of us are capable of
learning.

I was once asked if it was possible to teach judgement. "Absolutely", I
answered. I don't have to kill myself to learn not to do certain things. The
fact that others tried something and had a bad outcome makes an impression on
me. Am I unique? I don't think so.
