I agree with you on Bertie, but not MX. I honestly think MX posts here
because he genuinely wants to learn about piloting. All his threads starts
on a reasonable tone. Its other people who turn it into a ****fest, which
he then responds to. His "trolling", I feel, is mainly caused by his
frustration of the fact that people judge his opinions solely on who he is,
rather than what he posts. If people treated his opinions like they would
anybody else, he'd stop being so blatantly obtuse.

You haven't been here long enough. Many times Mx or Le Chaud
Lapin will ask a question, get the right answer in a polite manner,
and then argue endlessly against that answer, belittling the teacher.
What reaction would you expect?
Many of the physics and other things in aviation are not
intuitive; that is, they don't make sense to the uninitiated, and
without well-rounded groundschooling and flight instruction they never
will make sense. Flight simulators don't teach these things. Add to
that the fact that there are people who are certain that they're much
smarter than the average bear and so they have "new" answers to
aviation's problems. Those new answers killed a lot of guys a long
time ago but they don't know that. To them, "well-rounded
groundschooling" is equal to standard party propaganda and therefore
false.
Do some searching on past posts and see what I mean. The only
reason I answer him at all, when he asks a legitimate question, is
that there are others lurking here who likely have the same questions
in their minds. Something I've leaned as a classroom teacher: If one
asks, some of the others want the answer, too.
If those lurkers are still here, that is, after all the
electronic mudslinging recently.
