Lets see...he's an aviation professional, running the local airport
where the aircraft was based. He'd know the aircraft owner, and all
the A&P's at the field. As airport manager, I guarantee he's spoken
to all of the parties involved, probably had a look at the plane and
the maintenance records, and he may very well have been a witness to
the landing.


More importantly, you agree with him.


I wish you would go to a medical forum and argue with doctors about symptoms
and prognosis, it would be a damn hoot.


You were 6000 miles away from the incident, you haven't left your
apartment since, your only knowledge of the landing was what you read
in the links posted above, you have no aviation background, and you've
never been in a light plane or seen a maintenance log.


More importantly, you disagree with me.

He's more qualified to determine the state of maintenance.


More importantly, you assume that anyone who agrees with you is more
qualified.



I'm nominating you for the Usenet Idiot Savant award.

I usually agree with people who know what they are talking about, so there
isn't much to argue about with doctors. With non-doctors, on the other hand,
there's often a lot to discuss. Medicine is filled with urban legends.

Interestingly, one way to recognize true experts (in medicine or anything
else) is that they will occasionally say "I don't know," if they don't know.
Non-experts trying to pass themselves off as experts are very afraid to ever
say this, lest their cover be blown.

Not at all. I'm a good typist, and it didn't involve any odd key
combinations.

Is there anything you don't know?
Were you ever wrong about anything?

Many things, but I don't generally discuss things that I don't know, unless
I'm asking questions.

Were you ever wrong about anything?


Many times, but I'm more often right than wrong, for the reason stated above.
