Aero Gnus disinformation Network
Twentieth Annual Captain Zoom April First Parody Press Release. You've heard of the Polish Virus; "please erase your own hard drive." Well, Captain Zoom has outdone any parody that I, or anyone else, could ever write. See for yourself: http://evilurl.com/anallips |

Did this count as Zoom's annual anti SnF rant, or is there more to come?
Also, wonder what the real story is on him leaving Florida? Enquiring minds and all that... KB wrote in message ...

One can only presume that either this is his April Fools story, or that
business is bad, and he is making an attempt to increase business before making his last gasp.... wrote in message ...

See for yourself:http://evilurl.com/anallips- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - No, his SnF rant was on 3-27-07 read Barnstorming 10.0... I think that he left Florida just ahead of the Polk County Chamber of Commerce forming up with torches and tar buckets. In reality I believe that he left for the same reason that he ended up here. He arrived here because he got Don Jones to bankroll him and this is where Jones was based at that time. He must have found another fool that will soon be parted with his money, How else can anyone explain his sudden windfall, going to hire 30 people , buying a Glassair III and looking for a Corporate plane. Last time I heard that kind of talk from him was when he moved to Florida. As his rants go this one is a pretty good. However if you have been following his writing for about the last 20 years you can just change the names and places. He is still talking about himself in the third person and everyone is wrong but him. Frank M Hitlaw |

See for yourself:http://evilurl.com/anallips ....interesting that in his rant he claims to be living at an airpark, ["In the meantime, though, we've got great new digs that put us right on a lovely little airpark a ways up North, with a great home office, a nice big hangar right outside the door."] but when i google earth'd the address hitlaw provided it is nowhere near an airport. it's near the I-40/NC-54 interchange. as for the cash to buy the house, the glasair and all the rest, my guess is someone died and left him the money. |

It is actually a pretty good website.
Specifically, http://www.aero-news.net/index.cfm is the index of news part of the site and there is a good list of "funny" aviation related April Fools articles under the 2007/04/01 section. Some funny stuff there, and if you check the rest of the index, the site and its incoming news have been updated often in past 3 days. It is not easy to make a good internet site and keep it up to date, they have done good work on this. The update pace seems similar to Avweb. I remember the Zoom usenet wars since the mid 1990s like they were yesterday. It is a new millenium. Check it out with an open mind? Really it is not a bad website. The site could use some editing of Jim Campbell's overly-zealous writing style however... just an opinion. Lee McGee Mount Aukum, California |
