As a West Coast pilot, can anyone explain to me why people don't move their
aircraft out of the way of these storms? I'd call in sick and miss a day of
work before I risked by 30K+ investment.

I also find this strange. As always, some were probably waiting on parts,
out of license, or otherwise could not be moved. That said, I don't think that
there is a certified aircraft made that lacks the range and speed to be flown
out of the path of a hurricane given a few hours warning. I paid a visit to F45
(outside West Palm Beach) the morning of the storm and found only two planes
still tied up outside. What is wrong with the Orlando guys? Perhaps they think
they are immune because they are 50 miles from the coast?
