You might get the bare facts but no motivation comes with it. Making people fly safe is not a purely intellectual exercise! Back up a few posts, where Jason says... "sobering stuff"... and Airstream didn't even go into accident details. Personally I get a lot of motivation from reading blow-by-blow stories that I can relate to. The kind that make me think "gee, I almost did that last weekend, I'm really glad I didn't" or even "This is starting to sound like that report I read where..." I think the Flight Safety Australia magazine's current crop of stories is doing this really well. They're about power flying, but I'd encourage anyone to pick it up and see what I mean. _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
