Anyone who wants to take risks should be free to do so.
Said with complete disregard for everyone tasked to deal with the aftermath. the SAR helicopter who had to go out in these atrocious conditions, the Mountain Rescue team who had to risk their lives in an attempt to save his. Not too mention the fact he only scraped by the top station with it's visitor centre, train station, restaurant etc. All very busy on a harsh winters day with people taking shelter from the elements.
The principle of no interference in our aviating is a good one and one for which I am all in favour. However incidents such as these do not do the cause any good whatsoever. Had this chap wiped out the top station would you be of the same opinion I wonder?
