Danger often lurks in complacency.
The more confident people feel, thinking they're in full control, the closer they are to accidents.
Experienced instructor Seckley thought the fog in California was harmless and not to be feared.
However, the novice pilot in front of Harrison Clark, with less than a thousand hours of safe driving, wasn't so bold.
"Oh no no no sir, I'm sorry, we can't take off today."
Facing Harrison Clark's unreasonable request, the pilot's head shook like a rattle drum.
Harrison Clark checked his watch, growing impatient. "But the Air Traffic Control hasn't declared a flight ban today."
Pilot: "Yes, but the notice I received asked us to make our own decisions. I have self-awareness, so my decision is to stay home."
Harrison Clark took out his phone, pulled up the rental company's deposit system, and opened the section for added services, which meant extra tips for the pilot, and snapped a "1" and five "0"s in it.
