Love the picture, not seen it before though

OK, how many flights have been made by the man with large airframes? 50 + with the Buff and lots with the Victor, the actual number I don't know. However, the argument was to place in context that out of 3 very unique models, one survives and has a whole lotta hours on it, one hit the deck after 50 + flights due to pilot error, and one we don't know what the cause was......

Not really a pattern in context, I've just read several threads on here, experienced flyers losing their jets, most in less than 10 flights...... should they be banned or allowed to carry on? How many have crashed more tjhan opne jet??

I know there are a few at the field who would rather be in the club house when someone is flying, not everyone has the aptitude sadly, and in different disciplines too.

But there is not a pattern of crashing in my mind that constitutes a concern about this pilots ability, and of course, back to certification, (which you did not mention in this post, another good debating tecnique) the pilots are certified in flying to display standard, as I understand.

However, I could concede the MORE flying non spectator would be useful and a program of flight training including the use of sims, would enhance the abilities of all. I suppose it could be true to say that if the models are getting larger, than more full size type practices would be advantageous.

I hope that allows us to agree to a view, as I have not got any pictures to post showing winners, losers or agreement!!
