Because I wouldn't be allowed to take the helm.  I'm not a control freak,
per se, but I do like to be in charge.  I'd even want to pilot a plane, if
I were qualified.  I had a BASIC program way back when, now lost because of
that [CENSORED] hurricane in '05.  It was written by an airline pilot and
you get to sit at your console and fly a 747 on instruments only.  Just
getting it off the ground was problematical because of crosswinds.  A whole
bunch of stuff ensued after you successfully got the jet off the ground and
then I learned what VOR and VFR (among other things) was all about.  The
name of that program was FLIGHT.BAS.  At the time, I bought my first
compiler and made an EXE file of it so it would run faster.  Things got
very interesting after that.  (-:

I wish I could find that program.  I miss it.


Regards,

Roger
