Is it just me that finds general aviation totally depressing? You read today's accident reports and they are exactly the same as the accident reports of 30 or 40 years ago. The same idiots doing the same stupid things with the same inevitable results. The same over-confident pilots overestimating their own limited abilities. The same petty crooks running the same dodgy charter operations. The same spineless authorities preferring to spend their time nitpicking reputable operators rather than enforcing the law against the real rogues etc etc.
All the while innocent people are losing their lives as a result.
Today, on this thread, I have learned for the first time of the existence of flight-sharing apps. God help us!
