Bellrider - as you may have realised with generations - each new one thinks they invented sex.
With pilots, each generation only learns that the old boys might know a thing or two when one of the younger ones screws something up and then they vaguely remember being warned about it by some old codger in the corner.
For clarity - I flew with the Army in a non-operational role as a QHI, I am ex-RAF SAR pilot by trade but I have flown a lot of hours in a variety of environments so if you feel that has no value then that's up to you.
I don't care if pilots feel they want to take additional risks to get the job done - just don't pretend it is safe to do so.
