I don't know how to flight plan any more
"Jim Carter" wrote in message . net... Just curious - he had the airport in sight. Still, it was a wonderful example to drive home the concept of situational awareness I was trying to teach the kids. If situational awareness (SA) includes knowing local landmarks that at irrelevant to the situation at hand, I'd say your concept of SA is faulty. That maybe why G-V drivers have a far better accident record than the Rec Aviation amatures. Jim Carter Rogers, Arkansas "Matt Barrow" wrote in message ... ,,, Was he lost...or just curious?

Right - a local landmark that is a navigable waterway with barge traffic to
an inland port that stretches from the Colorado Rockies to the Mississippi River. Silly me expecting someone to have an inkling of where or what that might be. I stand corrected Matt. -- Jim Carter Rogers, Arkansas "Matt Barrow" wrote in message ... "Jim Carter" wrote in message . net... Just curious - he had the airport in sight.

If you think such Geographic Trivia is pertinent to Situational Awareness, in instrument flight, I don't think I want to be in the same airspace. No wonder the folks in the next step up from recreational flight have 3-5 times better safety records than the spam car drivers. -- Jim Carter Rogers, Arkansas "Matt Barrow" wrote in message ...
