![]() "Richard Isakson" wrote in message news ![]() "Ken Finney" wrote ... As a newcomer to GA (and not yet a pilot), I look for information everywhere. Ken, This is Chuck Slusarczyk's nightmare come to life Since you're new to RAH you don't have the perspective that came out of the Zoom Wars of several years ago. At that time Jim was still posting here and you could judge from his own words what Captain Zoom Campbell is really like in the darkness of his soul. Jeez... Can I at least say I like Pete Combs' voice? |

I'm not a Zoom supporter, in fact, I have warned others about him. But at least as far as ANN is concerned, to me it is like they are handing out free coffee. If I want a cup of coffee and they are handing it out for free, I'll take it. If the cup has his name on it, I'll turn the cup so that my hand hides it! ;^) |

Actually I once met a gruntled Former Zoom Employee. There is only one AFAIK. Ron Wanttaja used to be a big time Zoom supporter and part time employee. Ron did weigh about 30 pounds more back then :-) - John Ousterhout - host of Zoomland since 1998 RAH-15 http://www.ousterhout.net |

I guess our only chance now is to go to Pinkneyville. You know, whatever else is said about Zoom, he was mildly entertaining. Of course, I was never sued. When I heard about the P1 temperature 0 (Pitot) tube, I about bust a gut. And he honestly sounded like he believed it. You just don't find folks like that every day. Al G |
