    Unfortunate but people will always make bad choices weather in charge of machinery or every day choices there are informed or misinformed choices some don't have a choice someone else take that choice away but good management of the choices we do have will always lesson the chance of things going wrong not eliminating but managing the outcome to with your control so this old clip is still very inlighting of the way things are today Doug

    I would say that most RAA planes are in far better condition then our GA counter parts as people that fly for fun love there sport and you would find that most put hours of time into the pride and joys where the ga guys relies on lames to look after there craft and use there craft for transport rather then there second love but there are some
