Guys like these are why Democrats don't win elections. Every intelligent
thing a liberal leader says is undermined by some clueless jackass like
this, which is what people remember when they think of liberaldom. In
fact,
guys like this are the best thing to happen to Republicans.

It is an unfortunite fact of common human nature to wish to be BETTER than
others and the simplest way is to discredit everyone else. Unfortunately
this tactic robs the time and energy that would be required to truely better
themselves.
Remember "natering nabobs of negativism"?

Also unfortunately this tactic is often used in the courts of both legal and
electoral judgement and is the reason negative political advertizing works
so well. It is however also a comment on the percieved inteligence of its
targets.

I notice that organizations like the military that have studied what really
works develop cultures that build on the positive and motivate with words
like "outstanding"

Good luck and good flying! -c

Yep...seems to have solved THAT mystery all right.


Now I'm left with a mystery. Since you're in there even without a current
medical, why was I left out for so long?

On well....support mental health I always say. Thank God the good people
around here seem to outnumber the morons. Of course Bea says that me
sticking around here to take all this crap kind of puts one extra in the
moron column :-)

Some come here in goodwill and leave only intelligence.
We judge and respond to the demonstration of both,
the rest is inconsequential.

Not sure, but anything even remotely connected with the government can be a
twisted nightmare.
For example, I think the last medical they have listed for me is a class 2
dated in 82. I'm sitting here looking at a class 3 I got dated in 87 where I
was in sort of a "transition period" during my "retirement "from active
flying. That medical isn't on the data base at all. Next, I'm trying to
figure out how both my Commercial and CFI are listed on the base under
Dudley Arthur Henrique when in fact, my CFI in reality says Henriques :-))
I think probably the best thing for EVERYBODY to do is just accept the fact
that it's the FAA (we all know what THAT means :-) and just stop trying to
figure out how they manage to get ANYTHING right!! :-)

Okay, the database is working today.

I plugged in George H W Bush. He got a commercial pilot rating in
October 1945. Neither medical nor address available.

Then I plugged in George W Bush. He got a commercial rating in
December 1969 (not only SEL like his dad, but multiengine land and
instrument). Again, neither medical nor address available

So you hardly need to be current! (Both George 41 and George 43 are
alive, however, so possibly the list is pruned when you go to the
great fly-in in the sky.)

I plug in my own name and find address and all! But interestingly
enough, it gives the wrong information for my pilot certificate -- oh,
I know! I got a new cert in 2003, to scrub the Social Security number
off it, and that's evidently the date of issue.

And now I plug in Dudley Arthur Henrique and find that he was issued a
commercial pilot cert in January 1969, SEL and multi-engine land
"limited to center thrust". Last medical 3rd class November 1987 "must
wear corrective lenses." . No address

So: my guess is that Dudley is in there under a variant of his
surname, that he is practically a colleague of the president, and that
he hasn't been flying since 1989 or 1990.

Let's hear it for the FAA! That's a pretty good database, all things
considered. I think I was too hard on the guvmint in my earlier posts.

Yes, amazing what dropping a letter can do when dealing with a computer!

Yes, it is. You got it (the class 3) in November of 1987. It's listed if you
look up Dudley Henrique (without the "s"). Somebody else posted a link earlier
that included numbers. I didn't try it so I'm not sure if it's the same one
that I quoted above. I found your medical in the database accessed by the link
in this message.

Not that is screwy. All I can think is: "your tax dollars at work".

Kind of makes you wonder what it must have been like for Alan Shepard
sitting on top of that Redstone just before they lit it....put together by
government workers after being assigned the job of building it as the lowest
bidder for the contract.
