![]() "Gig 601XL Builder" wrDOTgiaconaATcox.net wrote in message ... "Michelle" wrote in message ... As to your question, it just seems so "unprofessional" and I think unprofessional conduct by pilots is a big part of the reason GA has such a higher accident rate than cars, and private pilots have the highest rates among their pilot brethren. How exactly Michelle will filing a VFR flight plan reduce the accident rate in aircraft? As since you mentioned it, do you file a drive plane when you drive a car? Do you always put not only words but entire paragraphs in peoples mouths? In any case, let's hear it from the real pros (the people that get paid to fly): How often do you conduct a flight without a flight plan? How many of you take off without a pretty through pre-flight of the aircraft. Here's the point: I never said, or even intimated that not filing a flight plan caused a crash; the point is the attitude and approach that proc take that the amateurs do not. Michelle S. |
