Don't take it personal, it is sop in this newsgroup to pick away at
people; like crows, with a roadside carcass.



It is SOP to de-mask and challenge lunatics who try to come across as
experts, when there are knowledgeable people present and ready to answer.
Mxsmanic is the world champion, but the present contributor is no slouch in
the matter.

Perhaps you didn't see his previous post, in which he suggested the BA crew
should not have executed an emergency evacuation after a crash landing in a
field. He felt it would have been smarter to wait for the air stairs to
arrive and should these not easily get across the drainage ditches, the
best solution would have been ladders, and only after these proved to be
"too short" would deployment of the slides have been advisable.

He proffered ridicule for the crew for having quickly adopted this
solution, when he could have simply asked (because he doesn't know) whether
this was the best choice.

No picking away at carcasses for people who ask questions for things they
don't know about . . .
