Some of them are smarter than others. I listen to the smart ones, and
ignore the stupid ones. Just being a GA pilot in itself doesn't make
one smart or stupid. And it's easy enough to spot the ones who know
what they are talking about.

If you don't trust GA Pilots, intelligence is not relevant.

I don't trust anyone by default. On that path lies danger.

Judah my friend; I'm afraid you and some others are missing the obvious with
this poster. Read his answer above once again and study it this time around.
The real answer is right there for all of you to see if you step back long
enough to see it.
He's said it all right here in this one post to you.

Follow his thought line carefully;

" Some of them are smarter than others"

What he's actually saying here is that with only his simulation background,
he's completely and thoroughly qualified to make this judgment after asking
a QUESTION to a real pilot, on how smart that pilot actually is. If you look
just a bit deeper into the psychology involved here, it becomes immediately
apparent that someone having the knowledge and experience to differentiate
in this manner after asking a question wouldn't have to ask the question in
the first place :-)

Again....
"it's easy to spot the ones who know what they are talking about".

Same thing. If he already knows enough to differentiate in this manner, why
the question in the first place?

This poster and the scenario he has managed to generate on these forums is
an absolute hoot!!!! :-)))
My wife and I watch it progress on a daily basis. She says it's better than
watching a daytime soap.....she calls it "All my Pilots"
:-))))))))))))))))))

How would you know what type of pilot he was?


By talking with him extensively, and especially by watching him fly.

You like a person who talks a good game, because that person is much like
yourself. You think that you can determine how he flys by watching from
the ground, because that's how you "fly"; from the ground. Good luck with
either of those approaches, because neither will provide you with the
remotest clue of the real experience you'd have.

I decided to quit while I was ahead 3 steaks at the Outback. I discovered a
long time ago that if I hung in long enough betting with my wife, I ALWAYS
end up losing....one way ot the other :-)

Well, I give you credit for realizing that you're on a dangerous path.
