That's why I said "you need to be on the radio to maintain separation with
ATC."

Thank the gods. But she has a point. If you're going to be that

social problems.


I don't have a significant other, so the issue does not arise.

You don't know about their lives together to be able to come to
the assumption that he is doing so.


I haven't assumed that he is doing so; but neither do I take for granted that

I honestly don't think you could handle a relationship.


I don't know. But since I'm not interested in one, it doesn't matter. I

Yes, you are interested in aviation, but once again, with the attitude you

You either a) have a long way to go and a lot to unlearn before you can
even learn anything in aviation, or b) you couldn't handle aviation.

so-called pilots are so quick to compromise safety.
