Material presented with the aim of increasing safety is duly digested and
stored away, hopefully increasing ones level of safe behaviour. The crash
comics however seem to have far more bite, the material presented is
chillingly real & often gives one reason to pause and consider the particular
case. It shouldn't really be so but at least in my own personal experience I
have found that it has a greater impact.
Those who want CASA to take a greater role can also take solace in the
fact that GA pilots and glider pilots kill themselves in exactly the
same ways, and exactly the same lessons are applicable, and CASA already
produces a crash comic.
Glider pilots who read FSA will be just as safety conscious as they'd
be if they read the GFA accident reports too -- But FSA has the resources
to do the publication properly, with more depth, and with analysis from
aviation safety experts (instead of what some people in this thread have
advocated, which is producing a few paragraphs of summary raw data in
the mag and making everyone reading draw their own conclusions)
