But it's nowhere near millions of readers who see your yappy little dog droppings. There are hundreds of thousands of yapping dogs such as I've described.

Even among the relatively few readers who frequent the same groups and blogs that you do, many ignore or killfile you. How do you know? Nevertheless, for the sake of argument, granted that not everyone who reads you responds to you. Care to document the ratio of criticisms to love letters for those who have responded to you? What do you mean by love letters? Even allowing for the effect that people are more likely to take the time to write a complaint or criticism than offer agreement or a compliment, your fan club is hardly in evidence here or in your other hang-outs. I don't have a fan club, but there are a number of people who are sufficiently obsessed with me to constantly write to me or about me, even to the detriment of legitimate discussion. It's bizarre. I don't consider it a compliment, because their obsessions have a pathological air about them, and are (probably) not driven by admiration. |

Neither do instrument pilots. Exactly. You don't have zero vis. You can hit "P", and get up and walk away. There is no connection between the two. |

Because you posit your opinions as though they had factual support equal to those of people who actually know WTF they're talking about. No, I do not. That is the inference of others who interpret my lack of wimpy deference to the alpha dogs as some sort of aggressiveness. They have a tremendous emotional investment in everything they post and read; I do not. Since there isn't any intrinsic emotional content in my posts, they imagine such content and project it upon them. They cannot conceive of anyone just participating in the newsgroup for the purpose of sharing information. For example, your ignorant comment about extending the airline pilot age to 65: But doesn't this mean that he'll ultimately fly longer? He may not be thrilled over the short term, but it means five extra years at the peak of his career. Which begins with a question, a question that nobody has answered. What were you saying about posting opinions as fact? Do you have an answer to the question? |

You routinely make assertions that are couched in terms of having expertise in aspects of flying. Give me a few specific examples. |

.... VATSIM provides ... Maybe you can get VATSIM to require a diversion to some other unexpected airport at some random time during cruise, to spice it up. Or, how about simulating an instrument failure, or loss of communications. |

I now have about 500 hours in my Baron, and of course have studied them
extensively. The military model ejection seat was in fact an early version of the MB7, made by Martin Baker. They consisted of a cannon shell to eject the pilot, co-pilot, and rear seat passengers through the roof of the plane, as you suggested. Once the cannon shell fired, a rocket charge ignited, clearing the seat and rider from the plane, and contained an automatically opening chute, with an attached raft and survival kit, similar to the ACES-II seat. Each seat weighs around 600 lbs. It's use has been credited with saving many Baron crews over the years. |

Nope, it's like only ever having eaten **** and claimng you know what shinola tastes like. Okay, but we now have credible evidence that he's probably done both. Ew, sounds creepy when you say it!
