Some caveats for people new to aviation and to this group
Every now and then we get a contentious, obnoxious know-it-all who in fact
has only rudimentary knowledge of aviation. Past examples include the Fish Who Must Not Be Named, AcroBat, Skyloon, and others. There is at least one such haunting the aviation groups even now. The current guy is small potatoes compared to some of the previous ones. These people are not friends of aviation. They have no idea what they are talking about. They freely give advice that may be dangerous. They do not care if they kill somebody else and in fact they probably hope they do. Beware of anyone who continually posts advice or information that runs counter to what the vast majority of seasoned pilots and flight instructors here have to say. Yes, the rest of us can be wrong and we all have our disagreements, but if someone stands out as continually disagreeing with people who actually fly, he is not your friend. He is trying to kill you. Treat him accordingly. |
