Uh. 30 pound over is burned off in about 30 minutes.

And airlines 'launch into thunderstorm filled areas' only they do it

at
altitude

Are you still pretending to be a pilot ?


Are you still pretending you know how to read? I never said any of

those
things are untrue.


Liar!

Where's the slippery slope?

The slippery slope is in the fact that any accident is caused by a
string of deliberate decisions made by the pilot.

You can always argue that the pilot could have done /this/

differently,
or /that/ differently and the accident could have been avoided.


I beg your pardon!!!!!!

The part about most accidents being the culmination of a chain of

events
is true. However, the extrapoltion that those events are deliberate

is
usually pure poppycock--the exceptions simply get much greater

coverage.

If an insurance company can argue they don't owe anything because the
pilot deliberately took off 30 pounds over max gross, then they can
equally argue that they don't owe anything when a pilot deliberately
launches into a thunderstorm filled area.

Imagine what it would be like if you get into a automobile crash, and
have the insurance company ignore your claim because the police
determined you were going 57mph in a 55 zone.

"Oops, you were exceeding limitations at the time of the accident, we
aren't liable to pay out"


God you're dumb.

In terms of intelligence, there is little that can be done to increase it.
Disease states and disorders (e.g., brain injuries) can reduce
intelligence,
though.


So, are you hoping to get well? or at least better?

Not enough lift.


Well, you'd have a hard time understaning how a 172 can fly to Haiwaii
then. Try simulating a 172 300# over MTOW?
