To all the "real" pilots reading this newsgroup.......
It's very obvious that Mxsmanic is not serious about learning to fly
real airplanes.
The questions asked by him are very basic questions that could be
found by
reading and educating himself in the "right way". Instead it appears
he is lazy and
wants to take the easy way out. He prefers to use us in this newsgroup
give him the answers to his mostly stupid questions.
It's even worse than that. He asks an innocent sounding question, and twists
the replies into an argument.
As a troll, he's almost as talented as Skylune.
I'm done playing with him.
He's better than skylune! I find myself saying "I'm not going to say a
word", but ... I still find my fingers on the keyboard. Damned, he's
good, he should learn to fly! The sad thing is I think he's really
interested in learning, he just can't figure out that A. sims are NOT
real airplanes. B. Real airplanes aren't that dangerous and won't fall
out of the sky if you run the engine at less than optimal settings.
Mine quit with less than optimal settings, of course it did have the
realistic expectation of at least getting some fuel. It quit on take
off and still didn't fall out of the sky. OTOH I did land a lot sooner
than I'd expected. I had the valve fixed and took off again. :-))
