The fact that he is right once in awhile is no indication that he knows what he is talking about. He is right more than just once in a while, and it is self-evident that if he is right, he knows what he is talking about, since the chance of a random answer being correct is exceedingly small. He is not a pilot. He is a flight-sim guy. That's the part that irritates you. Unfortunately, it has almost nothing to do with knowing what one is talking about, despite a widespread misconception to the contrary. Another example of credentialism. People who cannot depend on an unambiguous distinction between knowledge and ignorance resort to credentialism to maintain artificial separations. Even Mxs should be able to learn something. But what he says should in no way be considered reliable. Exactly the same can be said of pilots. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
