Mariner 9, if you think fore-warned is not fore-armed then continue to fly with your head in the clouds

I well believe in the phrase 'There are no old, bold pilots'. Just a little advice from someone who is old, has 10,000 hrs + under his belt, who has survived being shot at by SAMs, crashed, went solo in 1959, has flown everything from Chippies to Fast Jets, (with a few 4-engined airliners thrown in for good measure), might have something to say and something that the 100 hr PPL pilot might consider.

If just one inexperienced pilot reads my initial comment, thinks a little, then avoids hitting another this weekend, then personally I have achieved what I set out to do.

Obviously you don't need my advice, but possibly some do.
