"For over 30 years, Jim Campbell has told the world of
aviation what no one else dared to... the truth. He's worked
as a test pilot, stunt pilot, flight instructor
(CFI/A/I/ME/H), you name it... he flies fixed wing, rotorcraft,
single/multi-engine, gliders, balloons, ultralights, jets,
warbirds, antiques... the works. In addition to his highly
acclaimed flight tests, product reviews, personality profiles,
editorials, photo essays, exciting magazine covers, and amazing
stories about the world of aviation, Campbell also told the flying
public that there were products and manufacturers out there
who did not tell the truth or were actually dangerous, and that
many of the entities that we had learned to trust as Aviators,
especially the FAA, simply could not be trusted. To many, he was a
hero, to a few others, he was the loudmouth who screwed
up their scams... so he fought many battles, and
while he never actually lost a single fight, he sure got
his nose bloodied a few times... None-the-less, Campbell is the guy
that never gave up on doing the right thing for the world of
aviation... and all the flyers he's come to care so very much
about. That's why he's the guy "who takes the blame" at ANN."

Now that I've stopped laughing lets examine a few of his points.

"For over 30 years, Jim Campbell has told the world of
aviation what no one else dared to... the truth."


Lets see, the truth as in claiming to have fathered a non existent son? Truth as
in claiming to have flown food missions in Africa? Truth as to the hours he
claims to have logged? Truth as in how many types he claimed to fly. Go to
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/ousterj/zoom.html for
a bunch of "truths" as told by his zoomness.


"He's worked as a test pilot, stunt pilot, flight instructor
(CFI/A/I/ME/H), you name it..."


The word "worked" implies as in getting paid for.Who ever paid him to do any
test work? What credentials does he have to qualify him for testing? That is
other than his one week stint at a California familiarization school. Stunt
pilot ? What shows ,when, where.Flight instructor? I'll give him that one.I
guess 1 out of 3 ain't bad...in zooms world.


" he flies fixed wing, rotorcraft,
single/multi-engine, gliders, balloons, ultralights, jets,
warbirds, antiques... the works. "

Jets?,warbirds? and antiques? Once again he plays with words .."He flies"
implies PIC ,solo...not as a passenger going for a ride. Big difference.Once
again when ,where and who's?
and the rest is a hoot.

He still trying to convince people that he what he thinks he is. Sooner or later
people catch on and only the gullible fall for it .Takes some people longer then
others tho.

more quotes:
"In addition to his highly
acclaimed flight tests, product reviews, personality profiles,
editorials, photo essays, exciting magazine covers, and amazing
stories about the world of aviation, Campbell also told the flying
public that there were products and manufacturers out there
who did not tell the truth or were actually dangerous, and that
many of the entities that we had learned to trust as Aviators,
especially the FAA, simply could not be trusted."

This paragraph explains why I published this post. If zoom can tell the flying
public about people he claims to not have nbeen truth full .I can also tell the
flying public that zoom is not truthfull and not to be trusted. Every so often
he must be exposed for what he is and for what he has done .He should be exposed
for the harm to people and their reputations he has caused and never held
accountable. So for as long as he continues to play the role he does I will
continue to expose him for what he truly is, a "Phony". That's my and a lot of
other peoples opinion .....nuff said .You can read what they said about jaun
yourself it's another hoot...


See ya
