ANN is biased ZZZJJJ
I have said all along that zoom is biased when it comes reporting the news especially about those he doesn't like. The latest is his announcing of the John Moody Award to Jack McCornack by the USUA. zoom states that: "The most prestigious of these awards is the Moody Award -- named for John Moody, who many consider to be the father of American ultralighting." zoom goes on to say: "Paying homage to the history and development of ultralighting, the Moody Award is ultralight aviation's highest award. The Award is presented annually to an individual, a group of individuals, or an organization for their efforts over a period of years. It gives them credit for their efforts and their significant contributions or advancements in the United States ultralight aviation community. Some previous Moody Award Winners are Wayne Ison, Tom Peghiny, Homer Kolb, Dan Johnson, Ultralight Flying! Magazine, Vincent Vitollo, Boris Popov, John Ballantyne, Dr. Henry O. Malone, and Dennis Pagen. " Notice that one name is missing ..."mine". Hmmmm. Can you say bias??? :-) I congratulate Jack on his award and it was well deserved. In addition zoom didn't mention when a Hawk won an award at SnF a couple of years ago but he listed all the other winners. He didn't mention when I was one of the first 3 inductees to the EAA Hall of Fame.Those are just a few of the most recent examples. But he'll sure write about g conn or a zoom free zone sign. I don't care that he doesn't mention me as long as he doesn't mention me any other time . He has always been vindictive and biased and today is more proof of it.He has been unfair in his reporting for years and continues to try and pass himself off as the only honest aviation writer..What a phoney.

says... Amen Chuck, the only positive thing that ever could be attributed to zoom is that he caused alot of good folks to become friends. You have done more positives for sport aviation than zoom or any of his puppets. You are a good man and a friend. Happy Holidays, Frank M.Hitlaw,14 years fighting the dark side of aviation; Thanks Frank, your right I have met a lot of good people because of zoom .People I probably never would have met in the normal course of business. The RAH-15 is group that I'm especially proud to be a part of.With one exception the RAH-15 has held firm against the crap zoom has done not only to me but to a lot of people. Mainly I believe, due to a sense of right and wrong that the RAH-15 possesses and the determination to see that right prevails. zoom used to be able to bully most people early on but you and a few others stood up to him. Eventually thru RAH a lot of us who thought we stood alone found out we weren't the only ones being zoomed and found strength to stand up to him as well. The list of those who have been zoomed is now long and illustrious and reads like a Who's Who of Sport Aviation. "The proud the many ..the zoomed". Now a days if someone gets the dreaded "Govern yourself accordingly" warning or a terse "authorities are being notified" or the ever popular "I'll see you in court!!" .Instead of cringing in fear of a lawsuit we laugh and ask for a "I've been zoomed" T shirt to wear proudly at air shows. Now zoom is a caricature of a aviator a sum of all that is a joke in the flying world. He's a empty can making a lot of noise that is laughed at by those he's trying so hard to impress. Come on zoomy did you really pull that many G's in the Sukoi? did you really fly food missions in Africa?,do you really think people believe your a "test" pilot? did you really make emergency parachute jumps from crippled planes? Did you ......Aw never mind you might believe it but few others do. So all I can say at this point is I'm glad to know ya and glad we're friends. Hell I'll go steal chicken with you anytime LOL!! Merry Christmas or Wesolych swiat bozego narodzina See ya at SnF Chuck S RAH-15/1 ret |

Chuck (Wesolych Swiat bozego narodzina ) S I think the best revenge in most cases is just to live better than your enemy. I once had a partner who was rotten, was a liar, and was possibly the most miserable person I've ever met on Earth. One of my other partners, a good friend, felt like snuffing him. I talked him out of it. I simply told him that to let this miserable ******* live on was the best revenge, since we were assured each and every day that he would be absolutely miserable. He lives to this day. I'm sure too, that he's absolutely miserable each and every day he gets his fat ass out of bed. If my partner would have snuffed him, it would have let him off the hook. Not only that, but the responsibility for his soul would have been on my friend. By letting the rotten ******* continue to exist, it's the best off all worlds. We get to hear of him from time to time and how colossally miserable he is. He weighs 360 pounds, on a 150 pound frame. He's in lots of pain and now has cancer. He's watching his body rot away around a perfectly good mind. What better revenge could there be for all the people he cheated, lied to, and robbed throughout his life? If my other buddy had of put a bullet through him 15 years ago, we'd never have gotten this level of revenge. Nature got him...we didn't have to. Ha Ha Ha. I suspect there are others that you know Chuck, who will have ill fate all on their own without you lifting a hand. Think of your enemies for a moment now. Do you think they are having the FUN you are having? How many guys get to play with airplanes every single day like you do? How many people can make others laugh from the pit of their stomach like you can? I laugh every time I think of you and how you glued a thread to a fly in that catholic school in front of sister Mary Holy Smoke, then flew him around like a U-control airplane. I laugh every time I think of Tony Pucillo siting in that dirty old hangar of John Johnson's and roaring from his gut in laughter at your stories. Now that's priceless. How many people has Zoom made laugh? Nah, Chuck, you have a good life. You have a good family and lots of friends. What more is there? That's why for nearly half a decade now, I've wondered why you even bother worrying and troubling yourself over Zoom. Is he really worth even one word from you? a man from the Hall of Fame. You somehow put him on an even keel with you when you write about him here and let him trouble you. I suspect Zoom is gratified when he sees that you are still troubled by him. If he's not currently bothering you, I'd leave him in the past ole buddy. It just ain't worth it. BWB |

If my other buddy had of put a bullet through him 15 years ago, we'd never have gotten this level of revenge. Nature got him...we didn't have to. Ha Ha Ha. That's Ok for a guy that's not doing you any harm any more. Just last week I had a guy in the shop that brought up zoom and his articles and I had to try to explain in a few easy sentences what it was all about. It seems that when ever I try to ignore him,he's like a hemorrhoid and he pops up :-) Think of your enemies for a moment now. Do you think they are having the FUN you are having? Interesting statement ,as I sit here I can think of only about 5 people in my life that I would put in the category of enemy. zoom,jaun and conn are 3 of them Hmmm,notice how they all have 4 letters in their names? And I do have a lot of fun and I do have a lot of friends and I'm very grateful for that. But I also believe in justice and for all that zoom has done to people I'd surely like to see him face the consequences for those actions. He has never apologized to anyone or accepted blame for anything he has done to people and to just let it slide and wait for him to get his just deserts seems to be wrong. It's like saying I know Saddam was a ******* and murdered a lot of people but let him go and wait for him to eat his heart out. I don't think people like zoom or Saddam have a conscience like normal people. They would think they got away with it and sooner or later they would start the same crap all over again. zooms doing it already with charging companies for ads they didn't sign up for. How many guys get to play with airplanes every single day like you do? How many people can make others laugh from the pit of their stomach like you can? True I have been blessed with that ability towards humor which even the nuns grew to tolerate. Although I wrote lots of penance for my outbursts in class. The kindest thing Sister Mary Holy Smoke told my Mom was that "Chuckies not evil he's just mischievous" I laugh every time I think of you and how you glued a thread to a fly in that catholic school in front of sister Mary Holy Smoke, then flew him around like a U-control airplane. I laugh every time I think of Tony Pucillo siting in that dirty old hangar of John Johnson's and roaring from his gut in laughter at your stories. Now that's priceless. How many people has Zoom made laugh? Tony told me one time that he felt that the fact that I deal with zoom in a humorous way rather then let him get to me is better then getting an ulcer over it. And yes it was priceless having Tony as a friend and I still miss the guy. Nah, Chuck, you have a good life. You have a good family and lots of friends. What more is there? That I do, I have a good life ,friends family etc. in spite of all zoom has tried to do. However zoom has deprived me of a lot of income and tried to smear my reputation. A persons good name is all ya got and he tried to harm it. So like the Jews I will never forget or like the Founding Fathers I will stay vigilant when it pertains to zoom. He's not my main concern in life far from it but I won't let him fool new people into thinking he's what he says he is. That's why for nearly half a decade now, I've wondered why you even bother worrying and troubling yourself over Zoom. Is he really worth even one word from you? a man from the Hall of Fame. You somehow put him on an even keel with you when you write about him here and let him trouble you. I feel toward him like a guy would feel toward someone that raped his wife some things ain't that easy to put away. I don't fret or lose sleep over him he isn't worth that and I don't even hate him .Hating would require more energy then he's worth, but I would like to see him held accountable for a lot of things. Tony was ready to do just that when he got sick and put the lawsuit on hold. Someday zoom will get all he deserves and I just want to be around to see it. I suspect Zoom is gratified when he sees that you are still troubled by him. If he's not currently bothering you, I'd leave him in the past ole buddy. It just ain't worth it. I think it's maybe the opposite ,he sure don't like my zoom free zone signs and I'm sure he won't like my ANN Free Zone signs. I think he's more troubled by me then me by him. He wants me and others to shut up and not mention his past so he can try to regain some support from the newbies who don't know any better. I appreciate your comments but I feel fine and zoom doesn't .I know what your trying to say but honestly I don't give zoom as much time as you might think. You know if he ever got help and someday said "boy I was sure a jerk for a long time and I hurt a lot of people . But I'm better now and I'm sorry for the harm I've done". I bet that would go a long way toward people forgiving him and forgetting . But until that happens .... :-) Merry Christmas Chuck S RAH-15/1 ret |
