You sound like a bunch of wusses. If the kitchen's too hot for you, get out. This particular, 'Wuss' has flown 200 combat missions in Vietnam (RF-4C) and have a hand full of Air medals + a DFC. I didn't take unnecessary chances over there and I haven't done it in 4300 hours spent racing sailplanes. The advent of GPS has completely negated the need for the 'Neanderthal' finish line. Why do we keep it in the rules? Allow me to touch on another little point, the FAR's don't allow us to go below 500 feet at places like an airport, unless we are in the act of landing. Driving in at 50 feet, we aren't in the act of landing, are we? Who want's to explain that in court? JJ Sinclair
