I agree completely. I have stopped reading threads not because of one
poster, but because the need of a few others to keep trading insults.
I suspect a number of people on these groups are more interested in
taking out their frustrations on others than aviation. We need a group
just for people who want to belittle others.

ArtP, boy did you ever hit the nail on the head. Some of the people on
this list do not demonstrate the mental capacity to ride a bike, let
alone operate an aircraft. The last part of your post reminds me of a
joke. Q. How can you tell the pilot at a party? A. Easy, he will tell
you. This is the problem with these aviation lists, the desparate need
for some people to show everyone how much they know. I mostly lurk
here as much for the " Jerry Springer" aspect as much as the aviation
commentary.
