I did in fact read every one of his posts, and that was easy to do in a
few minutes. There really aren't that many authored by him in that
thread. But thanks for the ad hominem towards me.

Asking if someone who is an MEI owns a twin may be interpreted in a
perjorative vein or not depending on your inclination. I choose to
interpret it as a legitimate query. I wrestled with many of these
arguments for a long time before changing from single to twin. I had
my MEL for 8 years before changing from single to twin. The pros and
cons are numerous and I did not find any of his points specious.

Finally, Emily, I do have a lot of learning to do. I admit it.

OK Emily--you made me go back and reread every single one of his posts
to the group to see if he ever said any such thing and the answer is
that he did not.

First, you did not read every single one of his posts in the several
hours since I posted. Nice try, but it just isn't possible, I don't
care how fast you read.

You may have interpolated that if one of his
statements or questions called into question a statement by a
multiengine rated pilot he was saying such a thing. But my reading of
every one of his posts was that he never called anyone a name and he
never said "you don't know what you're talking about."

No, he's too good of a troll for that. But when Chris said he was an
MEI, MX's repsonse was, "But do you own a twin?" Does he believe an MEI
who does not own a twin knows less than an MEI who does? It doesn't
work that way. He DID basically tell Chris that he didn't know what he
was talking about.


questions which seemed legit , like--"why is a turboprop more expensive
than a piston, since it has fewer moving parts, is more reliable, and
uses cheaper fuel?"

If you honestly believe that is a legit question, you have a lot of
learning to do.
