This is a good quote. Can I use it if I give you credit?

"Flying is not inherently dangerous, but to an even greater extent
than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of carelessness, incapacity,
or neglect" - anon, quotation familiar to all aviators.

Hi Bob,

"Flying is not inherently dangerous, but to an even greater extent
than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of carelessness, incapacity,
or neglect" - anon, quotation familiar to all aviators.

To which another anon has answered:

"Flying IS inherently dangerous. Only a well trained crew and a well
maintained aircraft can keep the risk at an acceptable level."

I like this. Applies to other things, too.

regards,
Friedrich
