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). 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. -- Marty Shapiro Silicon Rallye Inc. What I got was a very clean record, all in all, there have been deaths, a few children....of reported actions and I'm doing a bit of guessing. What is hard to believe not in ASRS either (voluntary so sampling is speculative) is that there are /not/ any reporting functions for airparks. If they are clean of record, then you would think the insurance guys would have a reporting system or demand one. Maybe they do, I can't find it. -- Remove numbers for gmail and for God's sake it ain't "gee" either! 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. |

You initial post demonstrated that ignorance and you continuation has only reinforced that perception. I wasn't replying directly to you either, Mr. Sensitive. The only ignorance going on in this thread is the constant state of denial that accidents GASP do happen with airplanes and GASP can happen on airstrips next to houses.

Don't expect us to do your dirty work for you. Dirty work? Something your hiding, Robert? Then, of course, we have this issue. FAR 91.119, which states something like "Except for purposes of take off and landing, no aircraft shall be operated closer than 500 feet to persons, vehicles, or structures." -- Remove numbers for gmail and for God's sake it ain't "gee" either!
