Agreed. Best wishes to the family. Everything that I have heard is that John was a great guy.
I probably push it as much as anyone. I do take most of the safety precautions mentioned (except waiting for six inches and going with another human) and a few extra ones but always realize that it is a calculated risk as Windriver mentioned. If we do it enough, we will all take the plunge. One of the better ways to go though.
Too bad there is not a collection of information concerning close calls and fatalities. The aviation groups post the information annually so that others can learn from mistakes......
