Should I be scared -- C172 over Gross

I don't know it all, but I apparently know a great deal more than a lot of
people do. To them, it sounds like I'm trying to sound impressive, because
they have a hard time believing that a person could know that much. Rather
than accept that this is possible, they prefer to believe that it's all an act
or some sort of deliberate affection, which I suppose preserves their egos.

However, that is their problem, not mine. People who are reasonably
intelligent and untroubled by insecurity do not react in this way, and people
who are stupid and insecure do not interest me.

Look, I wasn't "mean" to you and I didn't "bully" you as you accuse many
people of doing here.

I don't recall directing any accusations at you.

In fact, I had you killfiled until I switched
newsreaders because you're annoying, obtuse, clueless and generally full
of ****.

So why don't you killfile me again?

As in, you pop off like some kind of know-it-all.

See above.

The pilots here have received training from instructors who are
obviously qualified enough to be alive, passed checkrides from examiners
who are authoritative, flown hundreds of thousands of combined hours and
lived to tell about it, some of them have actually build and flown their
own aircraft, and yet you've never sat behind the yoke of a Cessna 152
but yet you STILL contradict everything everybody says to you here.

Hundreds of hours is nothing. I have about 30,000 hours of driving
experience, but that doesn't make me an expert driver. Pilots with hundreds
of hours are often at the greatest risk of being killed, because they don't
really have much experience, but they think they do.

It's 40 hours more than what you have, isn't it?

There are bums on the street who might have more money in their pocket than I
do, but that hardly makes them rich. Forty hours is nothing. Forty hours is
just five days. Most people can't even develop a decent level of skill in
driving a car in five days.

I think you're smarter than your behavior here suggests.

I think it's not so much what my behavior suggests as what you infer.

You'd not walk into a Marine enlisted club and call them
wannabes or you'd be sorting through your **** to find your teeth, and
then you'd understand the meaning of words like "bully" and "mean."

That would not make them right, nor would it make me wrong.

People who are upset often come up with analogies involving physical violence,
especially when they are male.

You're not one of them, and you're certainly not qualified by any
measure anywhere to decide who is "worthy" and who isn't.

Why should I lend any special credence to your opinion?

Boy are you going to get a shock when they all come out of that

Yep!

Though I just got back form pushing my motorcycle a mile or so and that
didn't kill me.

Well, not you, anyway.

You come of as a dumb ass dilletante because the bottom line is
YOU DON'T KNOW **** FROM SHINOLA and you prove it every time you post.

You are too ****ing stupid to understand that you do have more experience
driving than someone who has never driven a car. Once again, you've proved
that YOU DON'T KNOW **** FROM SHINOLA!

Forty hours may be very little, but it's 40 hours more than you have,
moron. They have flown an airplane, you haven't. Once again, you've
proven to the world that YOU DON'T KNOW **** FROM SHINOLA.
