Who else here "discusses aviation" with you?
There are several people here who seem level-headed, but I won't
name th
em,
lest the treehouse club add them to the target list.
Surely somebody will step forward and defend you.
Why? *I can defend myself very well indeed.
You completely missed yet another point.
I did in fact defend him for some time, *but later felt the need to
apologise to the group, for my behaviour in doing that.
As a relatively inexperienced pilot I guess I didnt fully
appreciate the annoyance that airline pilots and instructors would
feel being told they were wrong (without substantiating evidence)
by someone who had never flown in his life. *As a PhD in physical
chemisty ,my attitude changed somewhat when he tried to tell me how
the Universal Gas Law didnt apply in the atmophere, despite several
polite attempts on my part to explain otherwise. *There is nothing
wrong with being wrong, as long as you learn from the experience.
It is the complete and utter inability to accept and acknowledge
when he is wrong that is so irritating. *If he wasnt such an
obnoxious character and wasnt 16000 km away I would otherwise have
loved to take him up ( gratis), although I suspect there is
something else lacking that would have prevented him from
accepting.
Don't feel bad. *You're not the first one to try and work with the
MXSmoron. *Many of the posters who now bash him also tried.
I have a suggestion, why dont we have a collection and *send
Anthony off on a trial instructional flight on the proviso that the
instructor publishes an account of his peformance on this group?
*I'll contribute
$20
What about it Anthony , are you up for it?
This offer has been made before and more than once. *Anthony is too
CS t
o
to go up in a small airplane. *But, then again, he is to CS to
experienc
e
real life.
For a laugh, look at Anthony's user profile in
Wikipedia:
http://en.wikiped
ia.org/wiki/User:Agateller
For more laughs, look go to his profile in VATSIM and then click on
"Find all posts by Anthony Atkielski 985811". *There are some real
pilots and controllers there, but it is amazing how idiots like
Anthony can't understand what the people who do this stuff in real
life are trying to explain to him. *Like Anthony's claim that,
similar to trains, there is
a
"dead mans" switch in airplane cockpits, but they are not simulated.
Anthony's VATSIM profile can be found

Just my own observation, have had read access to both this newsgroup
AND the old COMPUSERV AVSIG news group for well over two decades now.
*A lot
of
people with some great experiences that they were willing to share
have left because of the harrassment they got from the Anthony's who
post here.
*
Even Splaps Tarver and the Rockaway Loon have shown far more
knowledge and
understanding about aviation than Anthony, despite his claims to
intelligence, ever will. *Even the fish who's name we no longer
mention would rank above Anthony in understanding aviation, although
not by much.
*
It is very fortunate that we have some stalwarts like Dudly and the
Bunyip
who ignore Anthony's ravings and continue to generously give this
newsgrou
p
the benefit of their hard earned experience and knowledge.- Hide

For someone with such supposedly high levels of IT skills, which
demand high paid salaries, why does he cry poor?
Nobody will give him a job.
