Huh? I thought you said that you were retired? Damn, just when
you almost had me convinced that "Autocollimator" wasn't Kramer
afterall!

I am retired, and enjoying it immensely thank you. I'm also quite active in
that retirement (when my wife allows it that is :-) as a consultant to
various interests in the military fighter aviation community.
When I'm not doing that, I'm mowing the lawn and doing yard work as my
lovely bride of 37 years directs!!

Don't get me wrong, Dud. I do envy ya' your peacetime test-pilot
experience in high performance fighters and all that.

Why thank you Mike. That's quite kind of you, and I deeply appreciate it
believe me.
It was no big deal really; just some extensive research and development in
the early stages of energy maneuverability and fighter performance; research
testing in inertia roll coupling and departure for high performance jets;
acm and high angle of attack testing in the F14 ; you know....small stuff
like that.....stuff that keeps pilots who fly combat ALIVE in
combat.........nothing really important by YOUR standards I'm sure :-))

It's just that
you and 99-percent of the most prolific posters on this happy group
assembled ("Autocollimator" included!) don't have the first clue
nor do you give a **** how actual combat kinda' royally ****s things
up forever thereafter.

That's interesting. Can you possibly tell the group exactly how combat
f****d things up forever for YOU Mike?

Respect is a 2-way thing: you
respect me and I'll respect you, OK?

No Mike,I'm afraid that's incorrect. Respect isn't a two way thing. Mutual
respect is a two way thing.
God knows....if you're satisfied with the mutual respect you're generating
on this newsgroup, or even the respect you're gaining from individuals on
this newsgroup , then who am I to tell you you can do things better.
