Leaving Usnet Groups, Bye

Hi Dudley,

It's all your fault. I hadn't been on in a few days, brought up the
News Group and wondered why I was getting RAP when I should have been
getting RAS. Installed the damn news reader three times before I
figured out you shook the trees and all the nuts fell off... er ...
out...

I ain't never going fishing with you. You'd have the boat full before
I got the bait on the hook.

I think the person who turned him in to the FSDO, assuming it wasn't just
a bluff, did the most responsible thing of anyone here. It is very
important to police our ranks. This not only helps prevent accidents, but
it helps us all preserve our flight privileges and not have them
legislated away. Organizations that don't police themselves often find
someone else, usually a government bureacracy, more than willing to do it
for them. The latter is almost always a bad thing.


Dream on.

Reporting to the FSDO will do NOTHING. No way any inspector will EVER show
unless there is a death, at least.

I'll sure have to disagree with that one. I know they address situations
of unsafe or illegal operations. I've seen it. Maybe where you live they
don't care but that isn't the situation here.

No reason not to.

Regarding my "that airframe is now worth zero" statement:

I'll modify that to "it's worth zero to me".

There is enough uncertainty when buying a plane as it stands. This is enough
reason for me to pass on a plane he is selling. At least when he has an
engine failure while flying over the mountains in the dark, there won't be
any doubt if he's caused any damage.

The airframe comment was a little over the top,

why don't you just do what everybody else does; change
your name and come back in?

Everybody else doesn't do that. Some folks use their real names and
e-mail addresses, and continue to do so for decades.
