If you’ve flown recently, odds are that you have.

What’s worse?
Our little 2004 Cessna 182T has full ADS-B and it tells us where every other aircraft is at, even airliners flying above us at 35,000 feet. If anything is getting close to a course where we might get to a 1/2 mile radius, it gets really unhappy, and loud warnings. We of course can talk to the ATC, or the other aircraft before it is a close call.

I have not had an accident since 1970, when I was 16 and a new driver. One of the hottest girls in my high school was walking in front of the school, in a mini skirt that was very short, and dang she looked good. The wrong head was taking control, and some fool in front of me stopped at the red light. I rear ended him at 5 MPH as I was in a 4 wheel skid trying to stop.

I learned that day, keep your eyes on the road, not the stunning hot co-eds that my hormones wanted to look at, and use my big head to control the car.
