I think that what's being offered is that sometimes the more
comfortable pilot *should* be overridden.


But when?

Good question. I don't yet have an answer. It may be that the literature
doesn't provide a clear answer, but I'm not yet ready to say that.

I will suggest one for you - when more comfortable does not mean more
capable. The problem is how to measure capability.

I will also suggest that nothing is perfect, and that just because
something bad happens after the less comfortable pilot predicted it
would does not mean that his reasoning was not faulty. I offer for
your consideration the famous warning, "Beware the Ides of March."

You don't check with soothsayers as a part of your preflight? If only
Caesar had received a full briefing...

Well, the FARs *do* say "all available information".

Lessee here ... where'd I put the horoscope page......
