Just to reinforce the point made by several others, if commercial and military pilots only operate within the avoid curve due to absolute neccessity and fully understanding the risks involved, it's certainly one of life's mysteries why a PPL in a machine whose performance could best be described as "barely adequate" would dick around in that high risk envelope. It can only be a terminal lack of imagination or gross stupidity - or both of course.

Thanks for that quote,being a profesional that dicks around in said envelope and am currently away doing said stupidity, couldn;t have put it better myself. Thanks for the laugh, very true, very ammussing.
