Arrogant-bordering on belligerent-owners (was:GAMIjectors)
"Blueskies" wrote in message et... wrote in message ... Well Matt, rather than spending a lot of time trying to find a common frame of reference (with thoughts of trying to teach a pig to sing), I'll just repost my reply to one of your earlier attempts to read more into one of my posts than was actually present. Well, let's see: Newps makes a statement about his compression ratings and you come back with how such readings can be faked. Where I come from, that's "calling someone a liar". Unfortunately, much of what you post here in the 'groups closely resembles the common "ugly GA pilot/owner" stereotype. How about this?: "Hey, Newps, under such and such conditions, you can get false readings on compression tests. With little regard; My regard for you just fell into the basement. Speaking of "UGLY", go look in a mirror. TC That's the reason I 'ploinked' him long ago... Likewise to you. |

Toecutter, however, is an exception to that rule. He universally expresses himself in a level-headed, fair and balanced way, and is incredibly knowledgable and willing to share his wisdom and experiences. Unfortunately, clarity is not his strong point, at least in this case As I mentioned in another post regarding his response to Newps claim about his compression tests: "How about this?: "Hey, Newps, under such and such conditions, you can get false readings on compression tests." In his reply he presents such a mangled scenario that might be inferred as calling Newps a fake or a liar. He says I'm reading too much into it, but that's the risk one takes in being exceptionally brief. |

I have met too many A&Ps that I don't want anywhere near my airplane. How
about you? And some arrogant ones too. Just because they they know how to work on them, they think they are engineers. Never opened a genuine engineering textbook in their lives, but they'll make big fun of you for stating even the most basic of facts that any undergraduate enginneering student would easily know. And you can't even give them references where they can check it out for themselves. They just ignore you and go on arguing. They have their intuitions and don't need you telling them anything. This is very true. Even my A&P, who is a great friend and mentor to me, occasionally betrays this trait. I suppose it comes from decades of experience working with owners who think they know everything? I'm no engineer, but my A&P used to go absolutely nuts when I would research a problem on-line before taking it to him. I innocently figured it was best to get some good input from you guys (and others) for him to work with BEFORE ripping into the plane, but he would just go on and on about "Getting your information from those internet people" -- as if it was like hanging out with unwashed homeless people or sumpin'... ;-) Now, after many years (and seeing that, on occasion, I was able to point him in the right direction with an aircraft problem) he is much more accepting of this sort of input -- but I suspect he still privately makes fun of it... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Kloudy,
What is a "ploink" ? Correct spelling is "plonk", a slang term for adding a person to a killfile. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plonk -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

And then there are those of us who have stopped posting using real names after having received credible death threats for posting unpopular views. And maybe not even death threats, and even mild threats are not credible. However, what is it that people can't separate the message from the messenger? Does it really matter who the person is who posts? Isn't the critical issue the credibility of WHAT they say? So where did so many pick up the stalker mentality? I suppose those snotballs would have taken issue with the authors of The Federalist papers. |
