I agree with Rainboe 100%. This guy made a decision based on all of the information available. He was probably the only person who knew the actual cleared width and snow depth, and used this, together with his performance manuals, to do the job for which he is paid. The others made their own decisions not to go, and I would never critisize them for that. I am disappointed that 'professional' pilots should slate a fellow pilot without knowing all of the facts.
