If you are following a road or river or other feature on the ground
while flying VFR, and that feature runs north/south but often veers
off to one side or the other, are you expected to change your
altitude each time you move from a heading of 0-179 to 180-359 or
vice versa?

Why would you follow a road? If you want to follow a road, drive a
car.
Why would you follow a river, rivers end.
Why not fly the plane?



Because he doesn't fly.

Why does everyone get on this guys case just because he doesn't fly? He
brings up some good typical student questions and some even us old timers
have to rethink.

It isn't because he doesn't fly.

Because he's never flown, doesnt WANT to fly, purports to know more than
those who do, and gives advice based on that.. all the while asking such
questions as above.

He's been asked not to do so. He's been asked to change his tact. His
antisocial tendencies overrule though...and he's a pest..

Maybe I'm like the blind man touching the elephant here since I don't have a
lot of experience with him. So maybe I'll play along for a while and see how
it goes.

You just sound like the latest sock puppet to me.

Do us all a favor and avoid his threads.

And the cycle continues, with different names, and different subjects, but
the same, never less.

Not to mention the fact, you are probably arguing with Dudley.
