Point taken and it works, right up until, you know, there's something important getting overlooked and it goes out and you're not aware of it. I like the idea of being a test pilot but not when my family is along for the ride. My fiancee is pretty understanding but I'm pretty sure we ditch the plane or put it down in a cornfield only to find out that I could have prevented it by paying attention to the ADs. Nothing like living through a crash only to have one of your passengers kill you. LOL
To each and to their own Marty. You want to be simplistic and keep the "guv'mint" out of your flying and I want to make sure I don't overlook something. Either way, hopefully both of us wind up where we're going and can poke fun at each other over a beer or lunch if we ever meet.
