I brought this up on the = 1st:


"Every time a Lancair crashes, I do a = search on the on the LML for the Pilot, and most all the time = I see no posts from them, and on many occasions when I look up the N = number I see the plane was for sale at some point. That is very = interesting! Maybe a lot of these crashes are a result = of people who did not build their plane and as a result are not = concerned with all the intricacies that go into building, = maintaining and flying such a = plane?"


I agree; a) did they build it? b) did they = get advanced training, specified to the plane? c) are they member of the = LML?

Pulling a list of = all the owners of Lancair's, (especially new owners) and inviting them = to participate in the list would = also help to enlighten a few = and possibly avoid = some accidents.

I can think = of a few cases where both (a) and (b) were true but I can think of a lot = more where at least (a) was not true.
 
It seems like there is a positive correlation of pilots who = both bought their planes already built and didn't participate in lml for = an extended period, with accident stats.   I'm wondering if it = would do any good to track down lancair used sales and extend an = invitation to new owners.    ....and maybe also provide = them with some synopsis of the group learning.
