Jonzarno, I am pleased that you have persuaded your wife and daughter to enroll on the flying partner training, and know what to do should you become incapacitated. Perhaps they could also go for the PPL and the IR? Would they want to?

But it saddens me that you use your Cirrus mainly for business travel, with trips usually from 300/400 miles. Anyone who uses a light aircraft for business reasons is often under pressure to fly when it may be inappropriate; eg, bad weather, fatigue, dicky tummy.... a business meeting that is critical.

We used to call the V-tail Bonanza the "Doctor Killer". Try advising a consultant kidney surgeon that he really shouldn't fly today!
