safety feature is better than not having it. I don't think any of them
actually encourage bad behavior, but they certainly reduce the perceived
penalty. Reducing the size of the horns on the bull we're fighting may
reduce the macho quotient, but overall, it's a good thing.

Well said Gary. I think that we, as pilots, often over-rate our
capability of being able to "save the day" with spur of the moment
instinct and good training. The most depressing evidence of that
notion is our own (Lancair) safety record. Maybe what we should be
discussing (instead of beating our collective chest) is what's the
possibility of installing a "blue button" and a parachute on our
Lancairs.....
