    The FAA fucking loves saying "get-there-itis". For something that's so often a factor in devastating aviation accidents you'd think they would come up with a term that doesn't sound straight out of a Doctor Seuss book.

      It's general aviation pilot slang. It's a very American culture. They have all sorts of down-home neologisms. I'd say get an airplane and start participating if you want to change, but then I'd get dogpiled because general aviation is what landlords and small business owners do.
