Re: [vesatoro] American in Swiss
Vesa,
In short you saying that manufacturers should / must / can stop this kind of fatality by ''controlling'' sales?! How ?!
Please how that any of those involved in manufacturing can control anything?! Read carefully what Space wrote please.
On the other hand I must say this..
First line of defense in the base society when I started was mentoring!
To find a mentor was close to impossible. Now BASE school working at every corner and all you need is to show the money.
Talk about the quality of BASE schools as starting point how to prevent fatalities please.
Also, the BASE activity is not LB.
Sadly, LB looks like circus , looks like rehabilitation center.
It is funny to see how suddenly part of base society pretending to be worried abut all incidents!
What has changed please?!
Most of those fatalities in last years were pure human error. Mistake.
People were pushing to much not heaving knowledge , skill or wasn't lucky.
This goes to last fatality here too.
Stop talking about regulating BASE , sales, this that for the good of the BASE and than in next line talk about freedom.
This two things does not go along well.
Number of fatalities has not changes at all in last 5-6 years. Actually it is reduced, but to understand what I am saying bit of analyzing effort is needed.
BASE is activity which require certain level of common sense and patience.
Who has no desire to follow this basics or is to lazy or simply stubborn , has good chances to end up on BFL. Simple. Period.
Since 90% of fatalities are WS. I said very simple once..
It is not the rocket science to find out what is wrong and why we have fatality every week..
People flying MIG21 without learning to fly Cessna 150 properly.
