First of all...here's a video to pay y'all back for your suggestions. No, I didn't make it:
So...I feel like maybe I am too risk averse. While I understand flying up canyons need to be explored lest one finds a box that boxes one, and one needs to be sure that there aren't wires over rivers if one flys low...I really can't bring myself to fly much lower than 6-700 feet agl. The thought of losing an engine worries me. Am I too risk averse? I live on St. George Island in Floida, and i have miles of beaches...and close to where I fly out of, the beaches are both pretty broad and nobody is on them. Would y'all cheerfully fly 100 feet off the water there? How often do our cubs lose their engines? Mine has been quite reliable, but, well, I guess I am a wimp.
Do you guys do low stuff ala the video above? Am I missing out on something? I hearby issue a blanket indemity for anyone who encourages me to be less risk averse...from me and all my heirs and such.
What do you guys do?
Jim
