"ABLE to learn" - perhaps. But the summaries are not very gripping. 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.
