I do believe I will be using some of that training for motorcycling. It only makes sense. At least to me.  |
I agree with you that aviation training probably helps make you a safer operator of motorcycles.
However, I don't see aviation as anywhere near as dangerous as driving America's roads.
The aviation world that I fly in each week is a 99% professional environment while the roads of America are, essentially, an enormous amature night "open mic" session in the worst comedy club on the face of the earth.
