With proven technology.


Yeah, proven to have dozens of moving parts that wear out and need to be
inspected annually, carbs that freeze, a pitot static system that clogs and
has to be checked every two years, probably some Narco comms that work every

I have nothing against flying these planes - I fly one all the time. But I
don't kid myself that, after the pilot, the mechanical systems are the weak
link.
