Which means you are just here to be an asshole and wind people up.

It seems to me that it was said right from the creation of this forum that it is not a politically correct, moderated world of butterflies and gumdrops yet you still come here and give people grief for expressing themselves in their own way. If you can't wade through the colorful language and odd reference to something less than princess-like than maybe you should adjust your expectations of the world or spend more time in intellectually richer realms of the internet.

To sum it up, you are part of a forum, AvCanada, where the [i]troublemakers[/i] have been "kicked out", yet you follow the [i]troublemakers[/i] to their new home and cause trouble.

I would say you have issues pal.

Interesting. If you go back to my first post here, you'll see that I posted in response to Chuck calling BPF an asshole. I was willing to give this forum the benefit of the doubt, but it seems that it has already descended into 5-year old schoolyard bullying, which is what prompted me to join. The fact that you've called me an asshole for that, and you think that kind of behaviour is just "expressing themselves in their own way", says more about you than me.

Feel free to use the door if you don't like it here.

No one's forcing you to read this, are they?

I guess I have to make a sticky for the top of that form spelling out what I thought would be clear,

Pilots with questions or need mentoring advice from older experience pilots can post questions and have them answered by pilots who have been there done that.

That was the idea I had in mind when I first suggested such a forum.

People with questions can ask and there are people here who can give very helpful advice.

For instance in another thread someone is discussing steep turns in a sim and goes on to explain that he / she finds people make two big mistakes when performing steep turns in a sim, poor scan and eelying on feel to much.

My question is why not do all your check rides in the Airbus sim so the candidate only has one issue to deal with?

By the way The Colonel has posted a lot of reading material that will help answer a lot of questions.

mea culpa.  I always miss the briefing.  In
fact, I got kicked out of Kindergarten for not
listening to the teacher (really) so I spent the
year by myself, riding my bicycle around the
neighborhood.  A very pleasant year, actually,
despite the general nuttiness of the 60's.

Kindergarten sort of set the pattern for the rest
of my life.  I haven't really changed much
since then.

PS  Anyone tried the roast garlic receipe yet?
It's so simple, a pilot can do it, and it's amazingly
good.  Yesterday we had homemade crab cakes,
homemade cornbread, and homemade cheesecake
topped with homemade whipped cream. 

It's amazing I don't weigh 300 lbs.  Anyways, the
secret to a good cheesecake is that you have to
leave it in the fridge overnight.  Can't eat it the
day you cook it.  I've tried cheating with the freezer
but it's just not the same.

Pro Tip:  get a mixer without the hinge, that has
all-metal gears and a one horsepower motor.

I suppose I will police that forum a little more than others just so topics stay on topic, so I guess I will have to moderate a little. C:-)

When starting at ground level, would we be better off with folks posting things that they think would be helpful?  I mean with just over fifty members (which is an accomplishment, not a knock) there can't be a lot of questions, especially when it seems most of the members here are experienced guys who were too, umm, [i]honest[/i] for that other litterbox.

That is a good p O0oint Slick, Ill amend that boards rules.
