Wise words
Thank Step turn
A useful reminder that press-on-itis, get-home-itis are all too often a contributory factor. We can all fly below minimums but never without eroding safety. I flew a gtf in very poor conditions having called it off. My examiner confirmed I had made the right call then we flew. It was perhaps just on the right side of marginal and he was a very experienced ex military CPL/IR. It was the most useful thing I have ever done. If the weather is marginal for flying - don't fly. If the cloud base is lower than the surrounding hills - find another route, drive or look at the forecast for the next day! Hindsight is a tool only available to the living. Two lives cut short. So sad.
