What behavior are we teaching ? Who is the next better pilot? When will the next GoPro accident come along? Just wondering -

Fly and have fun. Unless you are the best, there'll always be someone better. Soon enough, I'm afraid.

I've seen a few low passes from the ground - - truly awesome, like watching an eagle fly, there'd be something missing in never having seen and heard one of our graceful ships smokin' fast down low. And though as I get older I'm becoming more risk averse, I still enjoy doing a low pass now and then. Also do a fair amount of low flying and landing in unusual places in my Husky.

I can't imagine trying to go through life never taking chances.

That there are intangible rewards for working on becoming a skillful pilot?

I guess it's better to sit back at watch a football game as the players try to give each other concussions - yeah - that' the behavior we should be teaching!

That used to be the standard contest finish. In fact, the first time I was
there when was coming in, I was told to come and watch, "the contest
finish". There was no contest, just someone having fun. I also saw loops
flown on downind. I did that once (twice, actually) at Alice Springs, NT,
Australia in their twin Lark with a passenger, and got grounded for the day.

Try that at a contest these days and see what your score sheet looks like...
