"SeeAndAvoid" wrote in message link.net... I just got done reading a book called "They Called It Pilot Error" and boy are we in trouble if some of the knuckleheads that are in this book are in any numbers out there. The only knucklehead in the book that is really out there is the author, who despite his claims to being an experienced pilot manages to confuse an HSI with the attitude indicator, does not appear to understand the goals of fundamental flight training, and generally seems to know little about aviation except for a few buzzwords that he does not really understand their meaning. All the stories are fiction, though some of them are kind of fun to read. The only place you will find where he admits that the book is entirely fiction is an oblique mention of it in the introduction. You will not find any of the incidents in the NTSB database.
