A couple of years ago I had a job interview at BOH and decided to fly from Nottingham (thats EGBN not EGNX).
I agree that flying is more fun and less stress, but I still think that many of you are missing the point. If you HAVE to be somewhere ON TIME then the unfortunate fact is that private flight is not reliable enough. As for time, well, if you count the time to drive to the airfield, plan and check the a/c, fly, get taxi to final destination then flying will nearly ALWAYS TAKE LONGER!
I agree with IO540, if you fly then fly to YOUR schedule, this of course means when ever and how ever you like......as long as no one is expecting you on time!
Regarding driving stress I would say set out a little earlier, put the radio on, sit back and relax..........you will probably always get there quicker!
As I said, I think many are missing the point and trying too hard to seek justification. Fly because it's FUN and we ENJOY it........end of!
Happy landings
