On the "Don't assume, check" theme....

There was a flight safety poster of a Gazelle flying down a firebreak between trees just about to hit a wire with the caption "Don't check, assume"

'cos the pesky sigs will have an aerial up and wires all over the place in an instant.

Likewise these days in the UK, those thin whippy almost invisible wind monitoring aerials for windfarm siting research pop up overnight with no warning. Don't check, assume.
