mxsmanic,why not buy a $10 book that has all your answers? also the far/aim book will tell you more than you'll want to know. LJ I have the book. It doesn't have all the answers. That's because it's written for actual, experienced pilots, not self-avowed experts trained on a PC game. F-- |

MXs Lunatic spews forth his nonsense again.
Manic your questions and answers are meaningless here. Not4wood "Mxsmanic" wrote in message ... Tony writes: We are as a group clearly not worthy of your postings. It's a sign of very poor judgement on your part to ask questions in a forum where you don't get the quality of responses you obviously deserve, so why don't you let us go play with our little airplanes and go away? It has nothing to do with worthiness. Judgements of worth are for people with ego problems. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

MXs Lunatic spews forth his particular sim of life.
MX your questions and answers are meaningless to us. Not4wood "Mxsmanic" wrote in message ... Kingfish writes: MX, how the f**k can you possibly know a 747 can be flown single pilot?? By studying the systems aboard. Most jet airliners with two-man crews can be flown by a single pilot, it's just a lot more difficult. And don't say "because I do it all the time on sims"... Why not? The gear handle is on the F/O's side, and the left seater would need orangutan arms to reach it I think. Not at all. When the FO is the pilot flying, the captain lowers the gear, and he can reach over and do it with no trouble. I've seen him do it. I've sat in the cockpit myself. It's pretty small and both pilots can reach just about everything that they need to reach (by design, no doubt). The 747-400 requires 2 pilots for a reason ... For redundancy, and because it's a complex aircraft that is a lot easier and safer to fly when two people are handling it. But it _can_ be flown by one person, even if that's not a very good idea. ... As far as using autoland a sim pilot (or GA pilot for that matter) would have no idea how to load and arm the approach. I do it several times a day. It's not rocket science. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

That is arguably true of every single question asked on this newsgroup, so that cannot be what infuriates you, because you are not infuriated by questions asked by others. Try again. I understand you're looking for knowledge... do you understand that your manner chafes most of the individuals on this board? It bothers some people, but that is their problem, not mine. I'm interested in discussing and learning about aviation, not making friends. You could have saved us all a great deal of frustration and headache had you taken the few moments necessary to look up this information on your own. See above.

That is arguably true of every single question asked on this newsgroup,
Others have a better understanding empathy and tact than yourself. so that cannot be what infuriates you, because you are not infuriated by questions asked by others. That should only be further hint to you that there is something about your manner which seriously clashes with this community. Try again. Case in point. It bothers some people, but that is their problem, not mine. So you see this forum as nothing more than a playground to exploit to get your needs met, not as a community of fellow human beings who share some of your interests... Classic Sociopathic mindset. I'm interested in discussing and learning about aviation, not making friends. And it has never struck you for a second that through a bit of tact and empathy might not have driven away those of us who were initially eager to assist you? Maturity does not suffice? I would suggest that the level of animosity directed towards you on this and many other forums you participate might suggest that your definition of maturity does not suffice, no. |

A resource, rather than a playground. No, I don't see it as a community. People who treat mere newsgroups as communities may have some unresolved issues. Not every venue for human interaction has to turn into a social club. Classic Sociopathic mindset. Were I to make a similar proclamation about aviation, you'd criticize me for not being a credentialed expert in the field. What are your credentials for diagnosing psychological problems? And it has never struck you for a second that through a bit of tact and empathy might not have driven away those of us who were initially eager to assist you? The ones who are driven away don't represent much of a loss. They tend to be people with large egos that are unsupported by their knowledge bases or intellect; blowhards who like to sound like experts but are not. They either cannot answer my questions, or they give the wrong answers. People who are smart, and not insecure, and reasonably mature, and knowledgeable on the subject in question will answer without the knee-jerk emotional response of the group described above, and they will not be driven away. They are sometimes hard to hear above the background noise created by the first group, they they are usually there, somewhere. I would suggest that the level of animosity directed towards you on this and many other forums you participate might suggest that your definition of maturity does not suffice, no. Animosity is not characteristic of maturity. What animosity have I manifested in return for this hostility? More importantly, why are so many posts discussing me, and not aviation? I wish I could discuss aviation more, and me less. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
