![]() Unlock your brain and let it think. In other words, you disagree. No. I am saying you are looking at this with "tunnel vision". If you want to learn from this group, know when to step back and open your mind up. That skill will also serve you well in aviation (not that you will ever need it) and other diciplines also (you must be working towards something other than a debating degree). |

It isn't a personal attack. I harbour no animosity towards you.
In fact tunnel vision is a dangerous pilot trait. You are so fixated on your point you refuse to realize Kev's distinction. Fear of criticism and interpreting same as a personal attack, is also a bad sign for somebody flying, well actually anybody really. (I know of some Captains like that, yes they still exist.) The fact is this is not in any way a personal attack of any sort. I am saying you are wrong and missing somebody's point, and why you are wrong and missing somebody's point. I do not attack anybody. I could have put up with allot. I don't know about you really but, I expect kids in school to be argumentative, arrogant and im-mature. They even go through a phase when they think they are better than their parents. I also expect them to drive silver Hondas, all jazzed up and cut people off in traffic. It is all part of the circle of life. I am very patient and discussing, arguing doesn't bother me. But your accusation, or attempts to put words in my mouth, I can not endorse by further participation. This can only degrade into a spiral dive, so to speak. It's tempting to think I can get through to you, but then I would be looking at this with tunnel vision. Since you have wrongly claimed I am attacking you, I am compelled, to no longer read your posts. That was going too far. Some games I won't play. So we will part company here. Have a good day.

Your flying along and you have stepped down over the vor and will step down again at 4 DME out and again at 4.8. ATC said something that didn't quite sound right to you but you keep droning along intent on hugging the radial you set in, because you are doing a beautiful job flying it. You've changed frequencies to the airport unicom now as you were told to on the descent, as the controllers signal dropped out. Your friend who came along that day kept asking about something, irritated by his tone of voice you told him your busy flying the approach right now and you'll explain it on the ground later. Hand's up who wants in the back seats right now? ======================================== |
