1964-M20E Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Since we have had some lessons learned or never again stories told here recently I figured a forum for “never again stories” borrowed from AOPA, would be appropriate. The intent would be to let others learn form our mistakes not to negatively criticize but to encourage those who have made mistakes to share them with others so that we all may be better pilots. What say the members of the board? Quote
201er Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 Honestly, I like the things with fewer sections the way it is now. I only check a few sections anyway, so having interesting tangents mixed into existing sections catches my attention. But adding more sections will just end up getting overlooked by me.

The-sky-captain Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 I think I would be interesting and insightful. It would probably encourage more people to tell their tales. Quote
John Pleisse Posted January 31, 2013 Report Posted January 31, 2013 I agree...edit them down to just a paragraph to start discussion as opposed spewing long winded, self sobbing stories like the back of AOPA. Be type specific and avoid the same old stories we've read 100 times. Maintenance events, Mooney performance, Mooney analysis......not the usual stupid pilot tricks already covered in the published mags. Quote
carusoam Posted January 31, 2013 Report Posted January 31, 2013 N4352H, I like your idea where we don't repeat the same situation. That would be the point of discussing it ONCE. If we could learn and not repeat, that would be good! Best regards, -a- Quote
tony Posted January 31, 2013 Report Posted January 31, 2013 I think we have forums and those stories would be appropriate in the miscellaneous aviation talk section. Quote
OR75 Posted January 31, 2013 Report Posted January 31, 2013 not sure any "never again" story would be really Mooney specific Quote
MARZ Posted January 31, 2013 Report Posted January 31, 2013 Or one could preface the miscellaneous aviation forum topic with "Never Again - the day I ........." a forum search with "Never Again" in the topic would show the posts. If they gain traction they could always be moved into a newly created forum..... Quote
sleepingsquirrel Posted February 2, 2013 Report Posted February 2, 2013 "Never again" is just a pilots way of saying "he's" not likely to do it again anytime soon. How about Moneyspace calls it : My misadventure............. can it be anonymous? Just in case it is actionable by someone. Quote
gregwatts Posted February 2, 2013 Report Posted February 2, 2013 not sure any "never again" story would be really Mooney specific I agree! Quote
