Next time you think about going flying - don't - just sit down on the grass outside your aircraft and think - I have just force landed

Scenario - broken leg - no phone - coat? rain? snow? Late afternoon to dark

No shelter from the aircraft - and all your tech is in cockpit - dead

How is it going for you? Stay sat down for an hour ....

Now consider the only change is - no broken leg - so you could walk to safety - do you have a paper map?

I could go on - but you know the idea

I'm sure Pilot DAR has a long list of survival stories from his part of the world - we are close to the basic elements when we fly - it's not all about the tech
