The Most Dangerous Part of an Aircraft
As someone who has over a 1,000 hours in command of light aircraft, with most of that in a big twin piston-engined Cessna 340, I read aviation stories, when I see them.
As to the most dangerous part of an aircraft, it’s the pilots, as this story proves.
I always remember the story of a Brazilian airliner that crashed on takeoff. There was only two casualties, in that both pilots died, when the plane hit trees. Afterwards it became apparent that they had been having a heated argument as they took off, which led to blows.
One doesn’t like to be uncharitable, but you can be if you want!

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.
