GA isn't just Cessna's. You really ought to take a look at the video I linked. It will educate you at least on the many different types of aircraft involved in GA and the huge percentage that that GA plays in providing service to the 17,000 US airports 70% of which the airlines do not service.

Look at Haiti for the most recent example of the role GA played in supporting emergency relief operations.

There’s no doubt it does a lot of good, but is a potential serious risk as well. Moreso than trucks, guns, and so on. WMD level risks.

I hate flying in general, and prefer people just drive. That’s my personal opinion. The people that died from PSA 182, 9/11 and so on. I just think people shouldn’t be in such a hurry to get around, just drive. GA flying isn’t that safe, and commercial causes a lot of deaths on the ground.

Of course there’s good done, but just IMO, it’s possibly not worth it.
