facthunter Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Brendan some day something may go wrong with your plane and you will have to cope with that. Flying is always not predictable . You MAY also be with someone who becomes disabled and it's reasonable that you'd make some effort to fly it. You ARE a PILOT. Not a robot.

facthunter Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 NO training syllabus covers every possibility that can happen. Don't rely on being comfortable and be ready to adapt is all I'm saying. Some people freak out if the radio's in a different place. A brand new Certificate or licence doesn't make anyone an accomplished Pilot. If you pick up some bad habits or dubious "facts" they may lurk and be a potential downfall later. It can be something you misinterpreted from a well meaning Instructor. Have you encountered a "dust devil "yet? Probably not, but there are places where they are common. Would you GO alright?. The buck aways stops with the PIC.

facthunter Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Very tragic. Relapse to what you are more used to, but why THAT procedure on the Cirrus? Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
