Apparent to whom? You? That doesn't count, because you're not
qualified to suggest to trained, licensed pilots than you know "a great
deal more" than they do anymore than you're qualified to say the same to
a Marine about combat or a doctor about medicine.

Like I said, you contradict everything everybody says to you and you're
a fraud and a poser. It's not just the low-time pilots; there are
FLIGHT INSTRUCTORS out here telling you you're full of **** and you
still lack the intellectual capacity to catch the clue.

So why don't you killfile me again?

Done, jackass.

There are bums on the street who might have more money in their pocket than I

No, numbnuts. Nothing, which is what you have, is nothing. Forty
hours, which is a lot less than what most of the people have here, is
forty hours you don't have, because you have nothing.

You're a poser.

Exactly.

Once again, you've proved that YOU DON'T KNOW **** FROM SHINOLA!

No it isn't.

Who else here "discusses aviation" with you?

There are several people here who seem level-headed, but I won't name them,
lest the treehouse club add them to the target list.

Surely somebody will step forward and defend you.

Why? *I can defend myself very well indeed.

You completely missed yet another point.


I did in fact defend him for some time, but later felt the need to
apologise to the group, for my behaviour in doing that.
As a relatively inexperienced pilot I guess I didnt fully appreciate
the annoyance that airline pilots and instructors would feel being
told they were wrong (without substantiating evidence) by someone who
had never flown in his life. As a PhD in physical chemisty ,my
attitude changed somewhat when he tried to tell me how the Universal
Gas Law didnt apply in the atmophere, despite several polite attempts
on my part to explain otherwise. There is nothing wrong with being
wrong, as long as you learn from the experience. It is the complete
and utter inability to accept and acknowledge when he is wrong that is
so irritating. If he wasnt such an obnoxious character and wasnt
16000 km away I would otherwise have loved to take him up ( gratis),
although I suspect there is something else lacking that would have
prevented him from accepting.

I have a suggestion, why dont we have a collection and send Anthony
off on a trial instructional flight on the proviso that the instructor
publishes an account of his peformance on this group? I'll contribute
$20
What about it Anthony , are you up for it?

30000 hours of driving would be 14.2 years of driving 8 hours a day 5 days a
week 52 weeks a year. While it's possible that you have that much driving
experience given that you claim to be too poor to have a car I really don't
believe it. Unless your counting simulator time then all bets are off but
so is your claim of having the experience.

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.

Gee Gatt, you're going to miss all of Anthony's idiotic knowledge :-)

Here's one he posted today in VATSIM in response to someone who pointed
out
that in trains is a "dead man's" button which, if controls are not touched
every few minutes, set off an alarm. Said Anthony, "Aircraft have this,
too, at least in real life, although it doesn't seem to be simulated, at
least not by PMDG." He really doesn't know **** from shinola.

That's a true classic! :-))))

You really should get outside more.

Done, jackass.

Then why do I see replies from you after this one?

About 400,000 km at a very low average speed, in heavy traffic. A lot of
driving, in any case.

While it's possible that you have that much driving
experience given that you claim to be too poor to have a car I really don't
believe it.

It doesn't really matter what you believe.
