Jul 16, 2019 at 11:54 comment added CrossRoads "Going around it means I run out of fuel and they all die." Fly into it and you may die also, never to help another group in the future. How is that any better?

Jul 16, 2019 at 8:26 comment added bogl @GdD Not at all. The point is that there are more pilots dumb enough to try it than you would like to believe. Some of them hold an ATPL.
Jul 16, 2019 at 8:22 comment added GdD And that worked out great @bogl!
Jul 16, 2019 at 8:20 comment added bogl @GdD, your plane is overloaded and you really want to go further than the destination you had filed in your flight plan just to satisfy the mandatory fuel margin. (see AF447 on May 31, 2009)
Jul 16, 2019 at 8:15 comment added GdD Um, no @Muze, you'd fly around it. Flying through a thunderstorm would be a great way to have your plane damaged enough you can't complete your mission.
Jul 16, 2019 at 8:12 comment added Muze @GdD your on a mission and you got to drop them bombs on time.
Jul 16, 2019 at 7:56 comment added GdD It's hard to think of a realistic case where flying through a thunderstorm is your only option.
