,...and don't forget to keep your helmet on when you get in your car. How ironic would it be for you to die in a car crash on your way home from the airport while your helmet sits in the trunk!
Ooow touched a raw nerve hey? I don't have a congressman nor a car, I ride bikes & always wear a Helmet! Don't think I've ever seen anyone drive a car wearing a stack-hat except in racing!

Training flights sure are not nothing as you call it....they are the very future of the industry & an important one at that, where many important foundations are created! Showing Your respect for training I see. Passengers don't fly much, but Pilots fly all day everyday, that's a bloody big difference & yes plenty of passengers have been killed in too many crashes, would they have been saved wearing a bone-dome; maybe, some? I guess we'll never really know!

Do You wear a helmet?
