Oh well, heaven forbid you should encourage
Are you suggesting having signed for GASO's, briefing and authorisation, the flying pilot annotates the remarks column " intend to have a bit of fun as well"
This is Bud Holland mentality
I dislike Health & Safety, and all the other crap that has crept in to destroy the ethos and fun of flying - however, if you observe the rules that have evolved since first flight and have been amended after every accident since - there is no reason not to enjoy safe flying
If a pilot decides to have a spur of the moment - 'girl racer brain fart and speed through the local high street to impress the locals' - then he should get pinged and have his wheels taken away until he sits another test

You never have enough fuel, except when your on fire!
