The question I have has he ever really been correct about anything aviation?


Well...

The other day he said something about CAS being "Computed Airspeed", while most
of us who fly think of CAS as "Calibrated Airspeed"... Even though it is a
lesser-used acronym, mainly limited to the Digital Air Data Computer crowd,
"Computed Airspeed" IS a valid description of the acronym/abbreviation...

Correct? Yes. Useful? Who knows...
