Anybody who can fly IFR can get 99% of a flight right. It is the last 1% which gets you.
Which is 99% of aviation in general....?!
To comment on recent rhetoric, I'm not bothered for the reasons for creating debates on all the aforementioned topics. These are intrinsic to all types of flying. Those of us with the intention of going CPL/IR in the future I'm sure find this very useful. That said, as well as providing he who posts with others' opinions, I like to think we all take something away from these debates... even if we don't admit it most of the time. It's all food for thought which, actually, is what we need sometimes.
How many of us will now
really think about our planned alternate? Maybe none, but I'd guess that most will have more justification for using the alternates that we always use, or think about using different ones.
