Hi Neo, The best thing I have ever found to help a kid who's having problems - is to take him to the airport and work him through "..solo..". It's rather an awakening experience to know that if you foul-up first class; you die! That's the point of the lessons. Started with the Wright brothers, and now we have lady shuttle commanders. If you drive your Harley into a Mack truck on the freeway, the same rule applies. Kennedy ignored the rules, made and irreversible mistake in judgement, and he's dead. The real tragedy is the the two girls didn't have a vote. Sorta like an abortion, isn't it! The innocent pay for stupid peoples' screw-ups! Screw the media whitewash, this and "..Prince John.." BS. He was given (..by grace, or whatever..) an opportunity to learn to fly, afforded a premium aircraft, and told to use good judgement. He made a bloody mess of it, and now the crisis mongers want to make everyone else in aviation pay for it. Quoting Major Burns on M.A.S.H.; "..not on your Nellie.."! Let Ted pay for free instrument instruction for all pilots - in repayment for the life of Mary Jo. John :-)
