Re: It's just too risky for me
Your continued insults show your true character John, on a public forum. Would love to run into you sometime. The sentence continues..... but it would have improved their chances drastically on landing the two attempts considering the wind and direction over the trees deep on the runway! As far as I...

Re: It's just too risky for me

Re: RAASA STATEMENT - LOW FLYING
I am scared of heights. 500ft means I will have to stop flying................. On a serious note, low flying has a degree of danger but I feel it can be done in a safe responsible manner. Punishing all pilots for the errors of a few is ridiculous. I like flying at twice the height of high tension p...
