You mean it's suddenly unsafe to fly without GPWS?
Not sure how I'll cope from now on. Especially this single pilot IFR stuff.
If today's RAF transport crews need GPWS to tell them when to round out over the runway (!), we should all be very concerned. Perhaps the least of our worries should be the age of the airframes?
P.S. If the VC10 is that bad, I demand my money back for all that highly risky backwards flying they made me do. Thinking about it, they never gave me a hi-vis vest to wear, either. How bad was that?
I'm completely traumatised, just before Christmas, too. Where do I claim.....
