How many instruments can I use for VFR?

It IS amazing :-) I can't for the life of me figure out what makes some of
the answering posters so publicly angry with him. He's been here long enough
for everyone to get a good look at exactly what's going on.....at least it
seems clear enough to me, but I might be missing something the others are
catching. Hell, all people have to do is avoid him. You open your
reader.....he's there.....you move on to brighter pastures. I just don't get
all this "plonking" and "engagement" with him. He's posted under me several
times. I just move on to something more interesting....like watching the cat
sleep......or counting the threads in the hall carpet.....you know, more
exciting stuff like that. :-)
Those who answer him with useful information HAVE to notice the lack of
reciprocal appreciation for their time and effort....and this would be for
those he doesn't take on from a "superior knowledge base" after they answer
him :-)
Either he's a outright troll, or the most unappreciative and obnoxious
person I've ever come across on Usenet :-))
The real interesting thing in all this is that if he approached the people
on these groups in a different manner, I know from my own experience
watching aviation people over time, (not to mention being one of these
people myself) that as a group, they would never put down someone coming
here from a flight simulation venue to ask intelligent and pertinent real
world questions. This group just isn't that crass a bunch of folks. Hell, if
anything, most of the real world pilots on these groups would bend over
backwards to help someone who approached them in a friendly and appreciative
manner.
Anyway...for whatever the reason......its "been good for my appetite. I won
another "Outback Steak tonight!!!! :-))

I love the replies that point out how MX is such a waste of time, while if
you did a count of the posts, a vast majority of them do nothing more than
jump down MX's throat. Talk about a waste of time.

But you're definitely right...it is entertaining. And I've even figured
out how to make my filters work.;-)

Don't sweat it Jamie. If you're at all interested in the psychology of
human behavior, the whole thing...the postings and the answers to the
postings are a hoot and a half :-)
The best way to handle it is simply to lay back and watch in the
background.
It actually makes my day really. I know many of the people who post here
from many years of exposure to their personalities and their knowledge of
aviation, which in many cases is quite extensive. The fun part is to
watch the thread start, then from simply viewing the names of those who
respond, take a mental shot at what the responders will be saying BEFORE
looking at the response. I'm getting quite good at it. My wife (the
psychologist) is REALLY good at it.
I have to admit however in my defense, that she so far is two "dinners at
the Outback"and a bottle of Jack Daniels down :-))))
