all right.
Mar. 25th, 2003 05:32 amI just had a pilot come up to the front desk and ask for directions to Hwy 70. I do not drive, so I printed him up a sheet of directions we keep on hand for moments like that. He looked at me, then at the sheet, and told me he could not read it, because his vision was so bad.
He is dressed in his uniform, obviously intending to work today, and is driving himself to the airport. Which raises the question of, why is he still being allowed to fly an airplane? The sheet was not printed in unreasonably small text. If he couldn't read that, it stands to reason, at least in my mind, that he can't read instructions, or gauges, reliably.
I may never fly again when I get through with this job.
