Why is it that drivers are apparently able to distinguish a rally driver's antics on TV from acceptable behaviour on the highway and yet showing anything risky in the aviation sphere is seen as a sure path to doom? I don't buy it.
Because almost every pilot thinks they are better than everyone else. therefor, anyone doing something outside their comfort zone is on a one way ticket to hell.
What would happen if a Jabiru was flown around a red bull air race course? OMG ! the stupidity! what would they say if they were told it was Matt Hall or Paul Bonholme flying it at the time?
