A tower-induced go-round

Doing what you want just because it isn't illegal without any regard
for how it effects others is the definition of arrogance.

Funny how that definition fits a few of the posters in this group... to a
"T."

Tens of thousands of pilots have subscribed to your local noise
procedure? They also subscribe to the idea that everyone must follow it
or unsafe conditions result?

They aren't "my" procedures, nor are they the procedures of some mob of
home owners, they are the procedures established by the airport
management.

Airport management is the person or group responsible for the operation
of an airport.

What part of that are you having trouble understanding?

And yes, the vast majority of pilots follow the local airport procedures
because most pilots aren't arrogant, pig-headed, assholes.

Jay,

Do you intentionally clip the name of the person you're replying to, or is
it my reader that's doing it?

I could say "pilot", but that would just terribly confuse the heck out
of the example.

I was only trying to be helpful. I'd want someone to call my
attention to my errors, so that I didn't continue to make them. Poor
English diction reflects poorly on the author's education standards.

The language style I use on USENET is the same as I use with the next door
neighbor while drinking beer.

However, if you are willing to pay the $100/hour I get for writting
professional documents, I will be more than happy to proof read, spell
check, format, and grammar check my USENET postings.

I haven't intentionally cut names, but have perhaps done it without
thought.

Doesn't your reader show the thread in a "tree" format? That usually
makes it easy to follow who is answering whom.

No it doesn't. Don't assume people want to see all the previously read messages
when opening a group.

I asked Jay if he intentionally clipped names and he said he didn't.

He asked,

Yes, it does (Outlook Express), but I had my View set to Hide Read Messages
so I don't see the full tree. I'll leave it on Show All Messages and see if
I like it.

Thanks,

Jon

It's a pity good grammar doesn't come naturally for you. Oh well....
