I’m really struggling with the thought process that prohibits a life-saving piece of equipment. Does everyone take the rule seriously (the having the instrument available bit, not the no cloud flying bit) it or just put a post-it note over the instrument and say “I promise not to be a naughty boy and take it off once airborne?”
