They work just as well for VFR flight.

I didn't. I crashed southeast of Garfield County, as I've already

explained.

I read "had plkanned to divert...but lost control" to mean you hadn't
actually diverted.

In any event, if your route was ETL.V68.MTJ.RIL.DBL, how did you end up 20
miles southeast of Garfield County?

From NTSB/SS-05/01:

Accident, Incident, and Violation History

A review of the accident and incident history of study pilots indicated
that 19 percent of accident pilots had an accident or incident before the
study accident. In four of these cases, the event included in the study
was


So, like, the NTSB figgured out that some pilots aren't as good as others
and tend to have accidents? Wow. What a surprise.

Guess what. There are some Doctors out there that graduated at the bottom of
their class too.

And English teachers...

Like the English teachers that didn't know how to teach you to spell
"figured"? Or not capitalize "Doctors" as a class of people? Or put a
question mark at the end of the "Guess what?" incomplete sentence?

Garfield County was actually on my route, so the diversion would have
consisted of simply landing at that airport as I passed over it.

In any event, if your route was ETL.V68.MTJ.RIL.DBL, how did you end up 20
miles southeast of Garfield County?


Between MTJ and RIL.

Because you engaged in a simulated flight without sufficient planning
and did not exercise the judgment training is intended to teach real
pilots.
