Any incidents?

Whenever you have 600 airplanes residing in a place, you are going to
have SOME incidents --ranging from groundloops to full-house "screwing
the pooch."

Let's start this over Captiva.

Planes...landing..people...mistakes..houses...too close...imminent death.

Yes?

Make sense?

About as much sense as

Soap....Water....Tub....Shower....People....immine nt death.

Stop taking showers and bathing YES?

The odds are greater that you will be killed in the tub or shower!

***********************************************

Yep.

I'm beginning to think this guy or gal your post is replying to is:

A) Way too closed minded to belive what people here repeatedly tell him

B) Way too paranoid about airplanes to ever want to actually be in one

C) Has some medically classifiable psychosis

D) An internet kook, along the lines of MX or Ken (or is actually one of
them)

E) Another of a recurring line of trolls that seems to be parading through
the Rec.Aviation groups

F) Some combination of the choices above

Whatever the answer is, I'm done with future conversations with him. Time
will tell which of the above choices are correct, and I don't think it will
take much longer for others to get as tired of him as I have.

Or 14 years old?

Yep, that should have been a choice, too. Then, add one or more of the
other choices, too.

The sad part of it is that there are a lot of "educated" adults out
there who are of the same mindset. We shouldn't be allowed to fly
because we might fly over their house, car, or space and suddenly fall
out of the sky on top of them. They are the same group of morons who
will totally disregard a thousand other greater risks to their well
being without a second thought. I wouldn't give a damn except they
are the same ones who are constantly trying to force limits on
everyones freedom to live because they have no life of their own.


Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-
preserved body,
But rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting

"....Holy ****....What a RIDE!"

lol Starting with the Subject Airparks; Living On The Beaten Path? (note
was and is a question), ending with raping freedom-mongers - in three
sentences - I would say you took liberties with the term "gross
extrapolation".

Back to the Subject and the discussion, since no one has yet to answer. Has
anyone a place I can go that would specifically have data on these types
(Upper Captiva) of airstrips and the incidence of off runway incidents (w/
houses, people, etc).

I hesitate to add to this discussion because I'm not an instructor,
just a rather slow student who's not qualified to give advice that
might kill someone.

Try NTSB.GOV. They have 140,000 or so aircraft incidents & accidents
available online going back to 1962. You'll have to structure the
appropriate search query.
