I'd say Jay's point below is most valid here. Jay, from what little
I've read about this dispute it appears to be about nothing. But to a
guy in a rusty old hangar, where you park on a ramp and who should pay
for things based on good fortune it can seem like the most important
thing in the world. I wasn't there, but I've seen this kind of
twin-engine envy at little airports all across the country. A guy who
is generous flys all the way across the country just to be treated
like a cheapskate by someone less fortunate; I suspect that kind of
treatment stays with you. My guess is that this is Bill's beef. The
other aspect that I agree with Bill on is that it is inappropriate to
be repeatedly talked down to by a Grumman Tiger wheel-pant
"screw-extractor" when your background is decades of homebuilding. If
the subject was microbiology then the expected roles would rightly be
reversed. But the subject here is homebuilding, and I for one desire
to listen to Bill, not Sydney. Perhaps some degree of private
pilot/nonbuilder humility is a resonable expectation by BWB.

Just my opinion. Glad everyone had a good time at Pikneyville (sp?)

And Jay, don't push the thunderstorm alley envelope buddy! Cut those
babies a wide berth!

Yeah, you got it Pac. You see through the **** because you have the
time. These folks will never get half of the meaning you had in the
above post. I know you took a lot of time to think it out and you hit
it dead center buddy. You just won't make a dent in the general
dumbing down of the RAH group. Over the years, it's the worst now,
than I've ever seen it. Almost none of the regulars who have built
anything even read this group anymore as lurkers. They've all given
up long ago as the Sydneys' , and the John Johnsons' of the world take
command, plan the picnics, insult the old timers with the real
experience and mooch whatever they can in the whole process in the way
of money, beer or support for the even, like hauling free rides in
high performance aircraft.

Hell, some ****ing asshole above said, "Phillips didn't even own the
310." What the hell does that have to do with it? I supported the
party by flying FREE rides and I bought the gas (and the beer for the
party). You see what the mentality is Pac. The free rides and the
fun is all negated because I didn't have title the airplane in
"Morgan's" view.

Well, Jim from NC. Why don't you send me a check for the gas, then
I'll understand that you understand what I'm ****ed off about, you
cocksucker.

Have fun trying to find anything meaningful here Pac. My hat goes off
to you for trying. This ****ing group of moronic idiots is more fun
to read that watching six monkeys try to **** a football.
