haha, yeah what HAS this got to do with flying?
Unless of course big brother has begun to erect speed camera heli's that hide in a cloud by the side of an airway and flash the unlocky sod going too fast.
Despite sitting on the fence until I get groin rot, I have to agree with
pondlife. Yeah I'm sure that a lot of drivers are capable of matching their speed to their environment, but if those who CAN'T begin to think they CAN because other drivers do, and someone gets killed....then its not really worth it is it?
I used to think I could break the limit as much as I wanted so long as I didn't get caught, and I still do sometimes, but with age I've grown much more aware of the consequences. I've also seen a few nasty speed related crashes (Last year I had to peel a guys head off the windscreen of his escort after he tried to overtake someone infront of him turning right and was going way too fast to stop).
