Normally I'm the kind of person that tell people just read the

I'm not a CFI but I give training in other fields, one of the

things I do is were to find and how to use manuals.


I was out of line here.


'm sorry, but this sort of thig just will not do.


Please call him a name and threaten to killfile him right now or

shall
have to take drastic measures.

As you feel neccesary and appropriate, but please try snd keep the

adult
behavior to a minimum, eh?
