So then; NO TALK at critical times, like on landing approach?



Yeah, we need to ban those headsets those pilots talk to the tower with. . ..damn dangerous pilots; communicating when they should be flying.

Seriously, drivers need better schooling. NOT MORE LAWS. Make the drivers test/training much more like a pilots.

Actually, just as there is a seperate license stamp for motorcyclists, there ought to be a separate stamp for city driving. (with com as a tested skill)
