your statistics seems no better than your other arguments.. they are misleading and it is what is called a long
tail.. you compared accidents and incidents. not similar. , incapacitation is another fake term. . if larry had
diarrhea , he woudl not be incapacitated„ he would however by a sick pilot. . compare accidents involving low
hour pilots and high hour pilots. , more relevant. . , compare accidents with a low hour co pilot to a high hour
co pilot, you might be right , but provide real nmbers.

Ok, fair point. Disagree would have been a better word.
Since it is 'the only real concern', I thought you would be interested to know that the probability of pilot incapacitation
leading to an accident during a 6hour flight is literally one in a million. ( 0.000000966, based on 5 years of general
aviation accident data )
The probability of the two pilots dealing with some of the things I described earlier is close to one in one ;-)

I resent you saying there is no benefit to have me fly. It is actually to your advantage and the safety
of the flight. FYI in the future if you would like to put forth a position that you feel warrants closer
inspection, telling me, or anyone else that you "resent" what is suggested, both weakens your position ,
smacks of girliness. and only detracts from any solid ground that your argument needs for support

Yes, if Larry was incapacitated, you would be better off with Dave or Darren. No argument there.
Thanks but I have no intentions of moving as I told you I need to be based in NYC.

lam aware of the robots.. years in the making, cskszmenlay was at the ranch„ the question you
missed has nothing to do with being a co pilot though i appreciate your over confidence. The
issue is that if something were to happen to larry, that is the only issue„ then i would rather have
dave or darren land in a storm in iceland. that being said i will make a decision tomorrow. my
suggestion for helping with your rent if you were to move still stands.

On the plane, I'm in flow and incapable of being upset.
("According to Csikszentmihalyi, flow is completely focused motivation. It is a single-minded immersion and
represents perhaps the ultimate in harnessing the emotions in the service ofperforming and learning. In flow, the
emotions are not just contained and channeled, but positive, energized, and aligned with the task at hand. To be
caught in the ennui of depression or the agitation of anxiety is to be barred from flow. The hallmark of flow is a
EFTA00931098
feeling of spontaneous joy, even rapture, while performing a task, although flow is also described as a deep focus
on nothing but the activity— not even oneself or one's emotions.
I can safely say there is no way anything emotional could affect my focus.
Outside of work, I just can't guarantee the same, but neither can any of your other human pilots. Until you get one
of these: YouTube: Autonomous flying robots
It would be easy to make meaningless promises, and nothing is stopping me from doing that but my discipline to be
honest with you. With that said, I have no intentions of bad moods or being anything but friendly. Since I won't be
staying with you, I see no possible issues.
I understand you don't need me to fly, but I resent you saying there is no benefit to have me fly. It is actually to your
advantage and the safety of the flight.
Yes, there are a many pilots with more experience and flying skills who would make a better captain than I. You
already have one in Larry. I would suggest that it will prove difficult to find a better suited co-pilot for you and Larry.
-I know my stuff, but I have no ego about being right in the cockpit, unlike 99% of other pilots. I am not trying to
compete with Larry. I am there to make his job of flying easier, I anticipate his needs and I am comfortable being his
'flying assistant'. That dynamic makes for a safer cockpit than you would have with a macho pilot trying to prove
himself.
-During every flight, we spend time discussing possible emergencies and ways to deal with them, sometimes I pull
out a test where we both answer FAA questions, sometimes we go through emergency checklists, we discuss
regulations and look up answers - I do it to learn but it also refreshes his memory and in turn we are both more alert
and prepared to handle anything during the flight. Do you think this is the cockpit conversation when another co-
pilot is flying?
-The other advantage of having me fly, and an important one at that, is my integrity - unlike Dave, I do not try to cover
up my mistakes. I am better than most pilots with my flight hours, but I know I don't know everything and I am not
embarrassed to ask for help.
-I am calm and collected in emergencies and very capable of handling high stress situations. Thanks to the differences
between LV's and my experience, our emergency responsibilities are clearly divided. Larry flies and I run the checklists
and handle radios. We both do what we do best. Would you feel safer if Dave was the captain on a leg so in an
emergency he ended up flying and Larry just worked the checklist? I don't think so...
-I am ahead of the plane during all stages of flight. Because I love it, I pay attention, think of what happens next, I scan
the instruments and catch discrepancies.
-I never skip checklists, even when I could continue without them. Most seasoned pilots do, and complacency can be
more dangerous than inexperience.
-I actually use standard terminology and enjoy the lack of ambiguity in radio and crew communication, I don't fool
around.
-I am very good when it comes to co-pilot duties. I always show up earlier than I need to. I go above and beyond to
get the plane nice and ready, I don't mind being stuck with the menial preflight tasks that nobody likes to do. I get the
cabin ready the way you like it...how often do you have music playing, new magazines, a devil dog and a freshly made
bed with a hot water bottle, when I am not flying?
Think about the airlines, there is always One person in the position of power. When you have two, things get
complicated. American Eagle co-pilots have as little as 500hours and the safety record is not any lower (numbers).
It is when there is tension, competition, macho attitudes and complacency in the cockpit, that bad things happen.
With me, neither of those is an issue. Think about your other co-pilot options...
