Default Flight to Las Vegas Pirep -- Part I

It was just an exciting flight, which is something that occasionally happens
if you actually use GA aircraft for long cross-country flights.


I'm not judging; I wasn't there and wouldn't presume.

However, some time ago you posted about some "idiot" who landed at your
airport in a snowstorm after what must have also been an exciting
flight. There was no end to the reaming he got here. He himself however
thought he did fine, and demonstrated superior skill.

Suppose that somebody =else= (who's stomach and ability were unproven to
you) were making this flight, and posting as he went. You read leg one,
leg two, leg three, and then you read about it in the newspapers. I
don't think he would get much of a defense here.

You are right, if you fly enough you =are= going to have exiting
flights. Maybe that's all this was. But the writeup suggests it could
have been much more.
