Fe can't do it, so he wants to make it impossible for those of us who CAN. He makes ignorant pronouncements as if they are gospel and breathes hate. I am glad that I do not have to share the sky with "Skylune." Some of you guys sure aren't the brightest bulbs in the pack. That's y I would only fly with professional, commercial pilots.

OK, enough of you fools. "Got scared.." LOL. What I said: it is not possible to become proficient enough to handle all the situations you will encounter in the air if you are one of those weekend pilots. Yes, you got scared because you were not smart enough to learn how to handle the situations you allude to. Then loss of self esteem got big boat to inflate ego needs to punish GA by being an "activist" and trolling a newsgroup. I'm ashamed I jumped into this and so should everyone else. |

What I said: it is not
possible to become proficient enough to handle all the situations you will encounter in the air if you are one of those weekend pilots. You are completely right. However, if you are one of =these= weekend pilots, you can easily become proficient enough. Jose -- "Never trust anything that can think for itself, if you can't see where it keeps its brain."

Exactly how many hours of driving did you have before you decided what level of experience and consistency would be required to ensure proficiency in that task? At 15 hours of flying, you barely scraped the surface. I find it interesting how you can make such a judgement when you have such a limited exposure and lack of experience. What exactly is your anti- aviation goal? What types of rules would you like to see governing GA? What problem are you trying to solve? And what direct benefit will you see from it? |

I have encountered "Skylune's" type before. They are usually washouts who have adopted a contemptuous, arrogant attitude toward those of us who persevered and learned. I doubt that "Skylune" even got to solo, because he just couldn't put it all together. As a result, he believes that, since a "smart, fast learner" like himself couldn't get it, the others who have persevered and succeeded MUST have inferior abilities and therefore should not be allowed into the hallowed skies. -- Remove _'s from email address to talk to me. |

What I said: it is not possible to become proficient enough to handle all the situations you will encounter in the air if you are one of those weekend pilots. Maybe not you, but the rest of us do just fine. Weird how warped, and thin skinned some of you pilots are. Weird how ignorant some people are when comparing their own abilities to those of others. As far as the life insurance exclusion policy, several of you other knucklehead posters denied this existed. Of course this too is totally wrong. See below for example.... My life insurance covers me...even in the plane. Listen, I could care less what you guys do for fun, as long as it doesn't affect others. But it does. Some of us are sick of paying taxes for runway improvements at GA airports, having small planes zoom over our houses, the arrogant little jerk Phil Boyer, planes crashing into buildings, roadways, etc., little 14 year olds taking planes for joy rides because there IS NO SECURITY, etc. Yeah. I also think boats and RV's (the BIG gas guzzlers-not the winged kind) should be banned too. And then there are ATV's, motorcycles, yada, yada, yada. mike regish |
