Whirls, you miss the point. Breaking rules by making mistakes is one thing, but breaking rules because you think you wont be caught is another thing altogether. I am just saying thet some PPL commentators on this forum, and not military by their own admission, admit to busting rules and are quite proud of this, their reasoning being that they are good enough not to need the rules in the first place. This is not a managerial failing but one of mindset failure, and the military do not, IMHO and experience, have this mindset. CRM and cockpit management has, for more than 20 years that I am aware of, been identified as the most contributing factor to safe and efficient flying. Being a military pilot in an aircraft is not the same as being on a parade square.....one needs to shout a lot more quietly!
