No he doesn't. He's obtuse and clueless and when you answer his
questions for him civilly, he contradicts you.

Here is the mother of all MXisms;

For example, what's my motivation? In a sense, I'm a troll too. I
tell people things
(usually about aviation, but in this thread about the aviation groups)
that they don't particularly want to hear.

My motivation is to learn from others' experiences and to share mine
with those who might find it useful. I have tried repeatedly to answer
MX evenly an accurately, only to have him tell me that I'm wrong or I'm
dangerous, and then continue spouting nonsense to the student forum and
dodging any challenge for hard sources for his BS even when I site mine.

The difference between he and I, though, is that I've invested thousands
of dollars and countless hours learning the art and science of aviation,
proving myself to instructors and examiners, and earning the experience
in my logbook. His reply to me is "I've spent thousands of hours on
MSFS. How many hours do you have in IMC?" (Answer: Infinitely more
than he has, and yet he still tries to correct me and everybody else on
virtually ever point we make or question we answer.)

One significant difference between MX and Bertie is that, like him or
not, Bertie knows WTF he's talking about.
