A single engine plane, I'd want to get to know the mechanic that last overhauled it and watch them work.

The pilot, has to in near-constant disaster-drilling mode and flying regularly.

Without those, which is most cases, I'm not stepping foot in said bug-smasher, because you're gambling with your life with someone whom may not be both experienced and competent enough to survive failure, no matter how well-intentioned or seemingly confident.

We ask verified pilots on Flytenow how often they have been flying, you can see their total hours and previous 30 & 90 day hours as well. We don't let pilots post who haven't flown regularly, recently.
