At the risk of thread drift, I always thought the saying was.....

"Experience is what you have just after you needed it."

Something that certainly applies to this Twotter crew.

If reports are true and they tried to take off from an intersection, downhill and downwind this is not just inexperience but plain bl**dy stupidity.

They were just lucky that the Twotter is rugged enough to save them from the Darwin Award which they would have collected in almost any other aircraft.
