There is no "just" to bombing and navigating.


Right. We all know by now (thanks to you pounding it into our heads
ad nauseum) that it takes a "superman" to bomb and navigate (esp.
in the B-26) but as I said -- this here particular thread pertains to
*pilot* training.

But I guess your war was different from mine.


I have never claimed to be a "warrior" and last time I checked, being
a combat veteran isn't a pre-requisite for posting on RAM.

You're choosing to focus on aspects that YOU happen to be familiar

That is totaly true. But this would be a better NG if everyone else did the
same.


And this would be a better NG if people like you learned how to
properly format their posts and responded to the subject at hand
rather than going off on irrelevant tangents like you, Tarver, et. al.
have done in this and countless other threads.

Let me give you a hint with regards to posting etiquette. Scroll up
and note how you copy and pasted the following sentence and then
responded to this exact same sentence twice:

I said:

"You're choosing to focus on aspects that YOU happen to be familiar
with..."

And after you copy and pasted the above sentence and responded to
it not once, but twice, you then conveniently snipped away the point
I made about how things are not as simple due to the advent of GPS as
you claimed they were and chose instead to go off on another one of
your off-topic, tangential tirades about "your" war being different
than "mine." Then you signed off after moaning about the sad state of
affairs on this NG??!??

Here's another hint, Art. Due to your lack of formatting skills,
selective reading (that inevitably leads to more of your of
uncalled-for insults and namecalling), copy & pasting sentences
so as to respond twice to the exact same sentence and just your
overall bad form, YOU are a significant part of the problem, not the
solution, on this NG. In addition to going back to the basics of
Usenet etiquette, as Dudley said, you really do need to start reading
your threads more carefully.

Careful now Art, you're about to spew...
