Default An Open Apology to R.A.P.

I'm never going to see it even if MX hasn't touched it. I've had enough

of his
defending this loser. Obviously, he's lacking the ability to think

critically.

I don't think it's so much that as that there is no common point of
reference or understanding when it comes to Mx. Ask him for definitions of
things like what constitutes GA for example, and you will find that his
definition is completely different from anyone who actually flies.
Therefore, if you go into it assuming that he knows what he is actually
talking about, or you think you understand what he is asking, then you set
yourself up for miscommunication and the
endless-descending-spiral-into-oblivion-circular-logic discussion which is
so typical of the discussions that involve the guy.

I don't understand why so many people get so worked up about it - I just
consider the source, and I don't read what I'm not interested in. If some
people here want to spend the time trying to understand the guy and perhaps
help him, fine - why not?

As far as worrying about potential pilots getting bad information from him
is concerned, anyone who has spent more than 10 minutes on the internet
knows how much weight to put on the information that you find there.
