Default Scared of mid-airs

...there is a speed limit in the 172's normal territory: 250
knots, or the slowest safe speed in your aircraft, whichever is higher.
If military pilots have a sterile area where they can play, these
limits need not apply....


...don't call a residential street a highway
for your convenience, and then blame the kid
playing ball in the street
when you smash him at 90 mph.


Keep the kid off the racetrack and everybody's happy. Responsible
adults do that.


The fact that by choosing to fly a 172 the pilot severely limits his
ability to visually clear the airspace is fodder for another thread.


Airliners aren't known for great visibility either.


And yet they have so few MAC's. Why is that?
