Whoah...please tell me you're kidding, right?

Nope, when he does get around to posting something
relevant, it's pretty clear that he's been there
and done that.

Bertie is single-handedly responsible for destroying this group. His
ceaseless trolling and mindless personal attacks have driven away every
poster of note from rec.aviation -- and you "like" him?

Even if he *is* a pilot (something that seems highly unlikely, given the
number of posts and times/days he posts -- when would he have time to
fly?), his actions here have been unforgiveable.

Thankfully, Bob Gardner, Dudley, Montblack, and every poster of note in
the last decade have migrated to the group Pilots of America. If you're
truly interested in open, constructive and friendly discussions of
aviation, I heartily recommend making the switch.

I also have lots of respect for those you mentioned.
I have at least one of Bob's books and I've profited
greatly from Dudley's posts. I'll register at pilots
ofamerica.com as soon as it's fixed and lets me.

And BTW, I *greatly* appreciate the aviation videos
that you so graciously host.
