Just don't ask me to fly in them....


If you are ordered to fly them, you will damn well fly them.


No I won't. What are you going to do about it? March me at gunpoint
to an airworthy B-25 and demand that I fly it?

And nobody cares
whether you approve of the thickness of the wing or not.


How shockingly ungrateful of the swine. I'm sure my opinion of wing
thickness on all aircraft is a matter of urgent concern to governments
and the mass of the population across the globe.

Or anything else for
that matter.


I'd be more impressed with this assertion about how little you or
anybody else cares about my posted opinions if you weren't constantly
following up my posts in an effort to troll me.

When you are ordered to fly, you will fly.


You're not in a position to order me about, however much you might
want to. And nobody in their right mind was going to order me to fly
*anything* - I volunteered for the infantry (and for service in NI and
the Gulf), not aircrew training forty-five years beforehand. I do
appreciate your quest for redundancy though.

How about making similar assertions about how you would have ridden
with the Charge of the Light Brigade if you had been ordered to,
regardless of your opinion on the price of cheese or Cardigan's
tactical competance or any other matter? Seems about as relevant to
the actuality of my posts in this thread as your yibbling about WW2
airmen carrying out their orders. Of course they did. Who contended
that they didn't? If you think I did, post the proof. I'll be
waiting a long time for you to manage that, won't I?

Now, if you're going to continue to followup my posts, I suggest you
attempt to address the issues I have previously raised in response to
you, including your own apparent hypocrisy over the use of third-party
evidence to teach others, in the " #1 Piston Fighter was British"
thread.

No answer? Funny that. Still, feel free to start another "wannabe"
fandago with another straw man if it makes you feel better.
