CB: your score is 75% so you do not pass. The correct answer for question 2
is in fact "D", despite the fact that there is no D (sometimes you have to
seek alternative solutions). Go with your gut next time.

Come Ancil, Lighten up. I agree with nearly all of your points. Even
pilots who read the site guide and get a site briefing can still make
judgment errors. But maybe we just saved one visiting pilot from becoming a
Darwin award winner.

Oh, good, now that should take care of it. That has been missing from the
site all these years and no doubt led to many accidents. :)
Seriously, wasn't that something we all were taught back when we took
lessons? Maybe BOLD isn't good enough, how about flashing RED?
Maybe the warning needs to be filled with misspellings so that some people
will recognize the words better.

I've updated the pop-up warning to incorporate Dan's suggestion.
As I mentioned the text was written by former CPC member John Halle. John
also wrote one of my favorite aviation safety articles of all time, which is
worth a read or a re-read by anyone interested in longevity ...

Maybe the warning needs to be filled with misspellings so that some people will recognize the words better.
