Funny, but I have never even heard of the "Emery program." Is that one of
those be a pilot in a month schools?

What I am, if you want to pigeon hole me, is an anti aviation activist. I
am in favor of much stricter rules governing GA. I flew about 15 hours out
of FRG, and realized that this is definitely not for weekend warriors that
occassionally take to the skies.



What "Skylune" is, is a jerk! Fe can't do it, so he wants to make it
impossible for those of us who CAN. He makes ignorant pronouncements as
if they are gospel and breathes hate.

I am glad that I do not have to share the sky with "Skylune."

Some of you guys sure aren't the brightest bulbs in the pack. That's y I
would only fly with professional, commercial pilots.


If they knew they had him aboard, they would boot him off.

Yes, you got scared because you were not smart enough to learn how to
handle the situations you allude to. Then loss of self esteem got big
boat to inflate ego needs to punish GA by being an "activist" and
trolling a newsgroup. I'm ashamed I jumped into this and so should
everyone else.

You are completely right. However, if you are one of =these= weekend
pilots, you can easily become proficient enough.

In other words, YOU couldn't hack it, so you've decided that nobody else can either.

No.


I know you aren't the one wanting to see a crash. I put in there, a (not
you Stephen), because the only way I see this other poster, is when someone
(you) replies to his post. He is a loon of loons.

Exactly how many hours of driving did you have before you decided what
level of experience and consistency would be required to ensure proficiency
in that task?

At 15 hours of flying, you barely scraped the surface.

I find it interesting how you can make such a judgement when you have such
a limited exposure and lack of experience. What exactly is your anti-
aviation goal? What types of rules would you like to see governing GA? What
problem are you trying to solve? And what direct benefit will you see from
it?

I have encountered "Skylune's" type before. They are usually washouts
who have adopted a contemptuous, arrogant attitude toward those of us
who persevered and learned.

I doubt that "Skylune" even got to solo, because he just couldn't put it
all together. As a result, he believes that, since a "smart, fast
learner" like himself couldn't get it, the others who have persevered
and succeeded MUST have inferior abilities and therefore should not be
allowed into the hallowed skies.

Maybe not you, but the rest of us do just fine.

Weird how warped, and thin skinned some of you pilots are.


Weird how ignorant some people are when comparing their own abilities to
those of others.

As far as the life insurance exclusion policy, several of you other
knucklehead posters denied this existed. Of course this too is totally
wrong. See below for example....


My life insurance covers me...even in the plane.

Listen, I could care less what you guys do for fun, as long as it doesn't
affect others. But it does. Some of us are sick of paying taxes for
runway improvements at GA airports, having small planes zoom over our
houses, the arrogant little jerk Phil Boyer, planes crashing into
buildings, roadways, etc., little 14 year olds taking planes for joy rides
because there IS NO SECURITY, etc.


Yeah. I also think boats and RV's (the BIG gas guzzlers-not the winged kind)
should be banned too. And then there are ATV's, motorcycles, yada, yada,
yada.
