| You STILL want to claim you are not making insults? 
| Yeah, I know what I wrote and no I don't see it as an insult unless you see yourself as a heli god. Again, sorry you took it that way.

| Is experience the only teacher to judgement?
|
You think you can have judgement WITHOUT experience?
|
That is what I said. Let me explain: Lets say your kid is in the yard and you tell them they can't cross the line at the curb and not to go into the street no matter what. Now they accidently kick a ball into the street in front of a moving car. a: They don't get it because you told them not to go into the street - good judgement without experience. b: They go after it and get hit by the car - bad judgement without experience
A few weeks later the same scenario happens but this time he doesn't run into the street to get the ball because his last experience of getting hit by the car teaches him its not a good idea - good judgement with experience.

| Yes, do you? There is a video in the RR TV if you want to see my ability from a year ago.
You are still trying to discuss me instead of discussing the issue with comments like, "Do you fly 3D Ron?", and "You talk as though you have little experience in flying helis".
|
I am not discussing you, I am discussing Justin, I used you as example to prove two different points in which you convienantly left out of your quote. You are missing the point of reaction time and judgement. This has absolutely nothing to do with you, or me for that matter.

| My point is that rarely does age have anything to do with good judgement, a rational choice, or even good experience. Some get it and some don't. Bottom line!!!!!

I have tried to explain that children are not little adults and their thought process is not developed. You should read Bradley L. Schlaggar, M.D., Ph.D. and his study about this.

I don't think children are little adults or that their thought process is devolped. I don't condone that all young kids should be allowed to fly helis. But we or I at least, am not talking about all kids, I am talking about Justin and the few gifted kids like him. My arguement is that age should not be a deciding factor as to whether or not they should fly helis. My points have been based around the fact the Justin does exibit the nessessary skills and capacities to do it. There are way to many adults out there that I have seen fly that shouldn't be flying but because they are older its OK. That is what I say is BS. It is no different then the 70 yr old person on the road that is completely unaware of their surrounding but because they have been driving for 50+ yrs they must be OK. I know every one of you that spends any amount of time on the road have experienced this one.

| "The difference between children and adults is profound," Fair says. "In a graph depicting the strength of connections between the brain regions we studied, children's minds have just a few connections between some regions, while the adult brains have a web-like mesh of many different interconnecting links involving all the regions."
| Maybe, just maybe, Justin and the few others out there like him have an abnormaly high level of these interconnects as well. Anything is possible. I don't have any knowledge of this so I can't debate you here. I take your word that this is fact.

| Study after study has show that children up through adolescence do not understand the consequences of their actions.
| My point is some adults don't either. I have already given examples of this.
With all due respect, I have brought up points and reasoning behind my points and when you don't agree you have just come back with my same statement as a question. It is obvious we are not going to see eye to eye on this so I am done debating it. This is not going anywhere productive.
Do we agree to disagree?
