Have to agree with act700. Used to live in Las Vegas. Over flying the Las Vegas Strip was a beautiful experience, especially at night. That is now banned thanks to several JAA ppl's who continually ignored instructions to turn around at the Excalliber hotel (Impossible to miss as it looks like a giant castle), and flew on, crossing the the end of the runways at Las Vegas Itnl, causing jets to have to abort T/O or landings. But they knew their theories..........In fact, at the FBO where I was training we used to regularly get European tourists wanting to hire aircraft. Again, those ppl's knew all the theory, but had no idea how to fly, so the school stopped renting to them (particulary to those from the continent, UK guys weren't so bad).
