In case there are other who would like to join us but who might be nervous about flying with me, I am an Airline Transport Pilot (the highest level of pilot certificate which requires six times the flying hours required for a Commercial Pilot Certificate), I have been a flight instructor since 1972, I have logged well over five thousand hours and I have about eight hundred hours in the type of airplane we are going to be using. gl P.S I haven't crashed yet, not even once.
