Final Approach
Reading this article this morning that hit the Monday morning quarterback nail on the head but it got me thinking:
Is there a definite pattern to the choice to make a precautionary off-airport landing or try and make the airport? Are there enough statistics to at least put the odds in your favor?
I'd imagine those who own and know the airplanes very well may have an advantage in this area, but then again maybe a disadvantage due to failure to accept the situation as it is.
What are your thoughts on this?
