Told the wife who wants to go to Destin to visit friends and wanted me to write her passes that no one I approved of operated it and she'd have to drive. She's pissed, but that's just too bad; I'm not taking the risk.
Your wife is right to be pissed. What risk? Name a single recent accident with passenger injuries or fatalities that can be attributed to low-time regional pilots.
You won't even fly a legacy carrier. I won't even go there....
