'framer' I think any thread relating to an A/C crash will eventually stall (for want of a better word) until as such time as the real known cause (if ever) is revealed from the authorities as there's only so much you can say about a particular accident.Thread drifting is ripe on PPRuNe when the core subject can't be expanded on too much more.
Still it's probably not a bad idea to have a separate thread on this insidious illusion so that one can focus on this particular problem without getting into a slanging match as we often see on a lot of threads where the Mods in their ultimate wisdom lock it.
I often count the amount of locked threads on one particular page (sad life I know!) which at times amounts to around 7 or so at times!
I believe that this illusion/feeling SI can be handled & quite well "IF" we have proper training/education, adequate 'tools' as in A/C instrumentation & currency,the latter being very important as having an IFR rating for Eg or a NVFR (Class 4 old days) is good & well but pretty much useless unless yr current, hence IFR renewals which I might add are not often enuf for most out there.
Personally I did a Class 4 yonks ago (NVFR) & it taught me valuable lessons which I'd like to think was a good precursor to my IFR rating years latter.
Heavy metal drivers get checked very reg & for good reasons but small Comm & Pvt drivers are left to their own devices for the whole year until renewal, now that's scary!
