Or understand it. Which you don't. That you dislike it is irrelevant.

It is very relevent to me and others with the same opinion, of which
there
are many by the way. Just like your opinion is releveant to you and
others
which might agree with you.

It is irrelevant, from the view that an opinion does not have to be
agreed
with, in order to value its right to be expressed.

That is one of the big ways that civilized countries differ from all the
rest.

Agree to disagree. Simple.

Not quite! There are many of those outside the demonstration community who
are free to offer any opinion they like, and do so on many
occasions.Generally it's acceptable to us in the community, but when someone
outside the community feels qualified to make an actual negative assessment
on the general ability of a pilot who flies professionally in the
demonstration community; we in that community feel it's acceptable to point
out that these "opinions" come from the peanut gallery :-)
These people are more than free to spout off about what they like and what
they don't like as they wish, and as is their right to do so. But when
somebody starts saying things like;

" Tucker and all the others would be lost if they had to fly with
finesse
instead of with horse power.

well........we kind of take a sort of ,shall we say, "displeasure" with this
kind of remark coming from the "gallery". In fact, a non demonstration type
saying this kind of thing in the wrong place could easily lose the person
saying it a few teeth instead of just a calling out on Usenet!
This guy went one bridge too far with his remarks. He passed "opinion" and
started stating factual judgment for which he has no background and as such
has no right to make unchallenged.
Other than this, he can spout off all he wants to. This guy's opinion on a
flight profile's difficulty or ease isn't the issue here, it's his totally
negative assessment statement on a specific pilot's ability that the poster
couldn't on the best flying day of his life even hope to equal.
In my opinion anyway, I find this offensive and unacceptable; and I've so
stated that here.
