For Mike Easley:

Mike:

I completely agree with your thinking.  Its right on!!!!  BUT whats it going to take to avoid making those bad decisions??

To me, safety is a state of mind.  In the Air Force (way back when) safety was preached on a daily basis.  It was part of your everyday awareness, part of the daily briefing, and  part of every preflight/postflight briefing.   Bad decisions were just not tolerated

We learn from our mistakes;  if only we can survive them.  Training can help.  Awareness can help.  Personal attitude can help.  What else????
