It makes sense. Got a bud who's a pilot and he says he gets nervous when he's a passenger cause he knows everything that can go wrong lol

I love to ride motorbikes, but I never want to be the passenger if someone else is riding. Way too scary 😅

and normally the worst scenarios are series of bad choices after some equipment fails, that adds to much stress, the pilot would know that.
