If members of the readership of rec.aviation.piloting feel that the
constraints of this duly enacted charter prevent them from posting
articles that might be classified as 'hangar flying' topics (as
opposed to 'piloting' topics) just say the word, and we can start the
process to have rec.aviation.hangar-flying chartered, or they can post
articles on those topics to rec.aviation.misc.


I'm a native English speaker, and I still can't figure out what the
difference between piloting topics and hangar flying is.

Piloting topics have a basis of truth

Ohhhhh!!!! Now I get it! If a posting starts out, "There I was...",
it's hangar flying. If a posting begins with anything else, it's the
truth.
Thanks Tony!

That's true for us damyankees. If you are from Dixie, the hangar flying starts
of with "Now this ain't no ****...".

Jim, you don't qualify. You're out west. Damyankees are people from up north who
come south and *stay*.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."

We southern folk think of yankees like hemorrhoids:

Ones that come down and go back up aren't all the painful,

But the ones that come down and stay down are a real pain in the ass ;-)


Oops...was that off topic? Sry Larry, go have a beer at Jay's
place.....oops was that advertising a felony?? Help! I can't stop!

This MUST be a Dighera thread. To this day, he stands (sits?) as the ONLY
person in my "killfile"... As a result, I am blissfully spared his
sanctimonious pontificating, and can only see the "collateral damage" caused
by his posts. This thread looks like a doozy.

By the way -- did I mention that our "2nd Annual Oshkosh Pool Party" will be
held on Sunday, July 25th -- the Sunday before OSH '04? Everyone here is
of course invited to partake in the FREE BEER we will once again be serving
at poolside...

By the way (required aviation content to follow): July 25 is the 20th
anniversary of Svetlana Savitskaya's walk in space -- the first spacewalk,
ever, for a woman. Thus, I expect that Jim Weir will be serving up free
shots of vodka in her honor.

You will note that the rec.aviation.piloting charter demands that
articles contain INFORMATION relating to specific piloting subjects.
Articles that fail to meet that demand would be candidates for
rec.aviation.hangar-flying IMO.
