Apology re mxsmanic

sometime ago I criticised pilots on this group about the harsh way
they were treating one mxsmanic. It seemed to me at the time to be a
bunch of egotistical pilots snubbing their nose at someone who was
genuinely interested in finding out about aviation, but didnt have the
wherewithall financially or intellectually to actually participate in
the real thing. No matter what your profession is, it always seemed
to me that promoting that profession in a good light to others was
part of what being a professional is all about. It has always been my
approach. I have now come to understand what a complete waste of time
trying to help this person is. I have never in all my life come across
an individual with an attitude like this. If any of you regulars
actually remember me for those comments, I unreservedly apologise.

Apology graciously accepted. Many of us (including me) did what you
did...tried to be helpful, give this twit the benefit of the doubt,
etc....only to realize that he neither accepted the answers nor
appreciated the time people took to respond honestly. I think you
came to the right conclusion faster than I did!

A troll is a troll is a troll, doesn't matter if it is alt.****nozzles or
here at FAP.

Terry, welcome to the club! Apology not necessary since you conducted
yourself as a gentleman while learning what everyone else here
learned, and in the same manner -- the hard way.

Next week we'll show you the secret handshake.

I think the expression 'There are several kangaroos loose in the top
paddock' has some meaning with that one..
So, as a neighbour, what're you flying?

I fly a 172 or 152 out of Barwon Heads, after doing my PPL in Warriors
at Bacchus Marsh.
What about yourself?
