My signature line.....and will probably be etched into my Tombstone is.......
"Limitations are for Normal Operations!"

There is nothing normal about crashing!

An undriven overspeed is no big deal if you are headed into the trees or some very unhealthy looking place....RPM is thy Lord and Saviour!

At least one Shell Aviation Advisor learned my Motto while flying in the 212 Sim at FSI......he got to experience what a Thunderstorm was all about while on approach into DFW....using the same weather model developed from the Delta Airline crash that generated the "Micro Burst" concept. He did not appreciate the method used to teach him....but later on accepted the universal truth of the motto. Hopefully, he has passed it along to others.
