Bob, I think you've hit on THE #1 rule for safe flying. Choose to never fly into the bad stuff and make the effort to BE SURE you'll never have to. _____________________________ I agree with the "if you have to go somewhere and you have to get there on time ..." comment. It's kept me from making several trips mostly because I couldn't guarantee the return trip weather. The trips I have made (after making arrangements to take get-home-itis out of the problem) I've had excellent success at getting home on-time. I left some extra time in the schedule and was willing to detour a state or two SIDEWAYS to go around bad stuff.
