Frank - with respect
I forgot to add, the snakebite victim had chronic renal disorder.
But then again to dispense with the lecture on snakebite statistics, the victim could just as easily been stabbed by a stingray. What's the stats on that survivability?
The point obviously lost was the pilot had a NVFR, had flown Solo the night before, but due to not carrying pax in the preceeding required interval, he was technically not current to carry pax.
Now pick that apart.
