there are other issues than age; besides, I remember clearly
the day I realized I would not be an astro/cosmo/spationaute:
the day I had a close look at the inside of a Gemini capsule
(on display in a museum), I was about twelve, and asked where
was the bathroom in this thing...

Nawh, we can just create two new groups underneath
rec.aviation.piloting...
rec.aviation.piloting.wantabes
rec.aviation.piloting.neverbes


But if you create sub-groups based on what might be called the "arrogance of
accomplishment", you must carry the process through. Terry (the OP) wants
all to know that he respects us and is willing to offer help, even though he
has over 2000 hours. Will there be groups restricted to those who have
flown military?.... transports?.... jets of any kind?...... really wicked
big jets? .....over 10K hours? .... over 20K hours? over 30K? Where do you
end it? The only lasting result will be devisiveness.

......someone who has no concept of what flying an aircraft is like .....


But he does have *some* concept. Much of it wrong or misunderstood because
his entire experience base comes from the aircraft flight characteristics as
defined by MS Sim.
