How the hell do YOU know how I wish to operate MY airplane?


Simple logic. You've told us your airplane does not have a transponder and
encoder yet you can (and do) legally operate it in any airspace that you
wish. Since transponders and encoders are required equipment in some
airspace, it follows that you do not wish to operate your airplane in any
airspace that would require it to have them.



You're the self-anointed expert on FAR's Stevie, you tell me!


It can't be any other way.



(Hint: don't expect me to answer if you're too lazy to do your own
homework, or too stubborn to listen to the correct answer!)


Don't expect you to answer what? I'm the one that GAVE the correct answer.



Huh? WHAT isn't?!??


Try to keep up. "It isn't" is the answer to the question you asked; "The
airport where I'm based is under Tampa's mode C veil therefore all aircraft
(besides mine ) must be squawking 1200 the instant their wheels leave the
ground. Now why do you s'pose that is?"



Huh? Who said anything about a discrete code?


I did. You said all aircraft (besides yours ) must be squawking 1200, a
nondiscrete code, the instant their wheels leave the ground. That's not
correct. Any aircraft assigned a discrete code by ATC prior to departure
would not have to squawk 1200 the instant their wheels left the ground.



Finally! I see you've been studying 91.215 like I told you,


Actually, I haven't. Why would you think I had?



what, THREE days ago after you planted your foot firmly in your
big mouth trying to impress with your superficial knowledge of the
FAR's.


How did you imagine I had my foot in my mouth?



So, how's the crow taste Stevie boy?


I wouldn't know.



Riiiiiiiiiight Stevie. Whatever you say Stevie. You can backpedal all
you want, but you're STILL more full of **** than a brontasaurus with
no ass!


Backpedaling? How so?
