Back in the January issue, my Remarks outlined how I try to look at my flying choices through the lens of an accident report if the choices don’t work out. There is a corollary to that and it’s worth exploring; consider this an extension of my January Remarks.
I got my private certificate when I was an indestructible 21-year old and behaved accordingly. Approaching a vast 100 hours of experience, I’d do things that, well, many of us have probably also done but none of us should. You know the list: scud running, stretching currency, not being as scrupulous with weight and balance as the FAA expects, etc.
