ChuckSlusarczyk wrote: This is the updated zoom bio from the RRL web site it's a hoot!!Just for grins I'm going to contact National Geographic.Popular Science and Popular Mechanics to see if zoom ever had a published article in them. Here's where it's at: www.rocketracingleague.com/bio_jim-campbell.html Chuck S RAH-14/1 ret and now heeeerrreeesss the bio!!! __________________________________________________ _____________________________ A commercially rated pilot, Campbell has earned Flight instructor Ratings (CFI/A/I/ME/H) in fixed and rotary wing aircraft, and logged over 17,000 flight hours in over 1100 different ultralights, jets, multi-engine A/C, helicopters, gyroplanes, autogyros, sailplanes, seaplanes, kit aircraft and general aviation birds. Among Campbell's many other lofty accomplishments are his 1981 Ultralight World Record High Altitude flight to 21,210 feet over Lakehurst, New Jersey; flying on behalf of President Ronald Reagan as an airshow pilot during the 1981-82 Air and Space Bicentennial; several years of film and TV aviation stunt work; his 1981 Ultralight Flight Across America; 17 published books in the aviation field (with three more in the works for '06-'07); the first aviation journalist to solo and evaluate the awesome Russian Sukhoi SU-26 and SU-31, the FEW P-51 Mustang, the Unlimited 10-300 and many other high performance aircraft. Jim was also the first fly-writer to sample and document the intriguing capabilities of the BD-10 Jet, the Glasair III, the Van's RV-6 and dozens of other pivotal aircraft. Now, what I would like to see are his extensive logbooks documenting all this ****, and from there, his certificates; plus the Police Report on his getting shot in the leg saving the little girl, the NTSB report that mentions Campbell coming forward as a witness to them in the Cerritos Air Disaster, beyond Time Magazine, etc., etc., etc. I remember when I brought up the fact this bio ~ and this is the third rendition of a bio put up by/about/written by Campbell ~ indicated that Campbell had test flown AND evaluated something like 1100 aircraft from the age of thirteen. I questioned, editorially, "Who cares what a thirteen year old's evaluation of an aircraft is?" In California, at the time Campbell was thirteen, you had to be sixteen to get a license. The RRL removed the bio, kept it dormant, then the changes were made to the subsequent bio. "Test flown OR evaluated...la la la la la..." The RRL, as it is, is nothing more than a fraud. Fraud has been associated with a number of the people in it, including 1) the CEO, Granger Whitelaw, over the Amber Alert Portal issue in Arizona; 2) Anousheh Ansari, accused with her husband Amid, of Insider Trading in a stock issue in Massachusetts; 3) Mike Houghton, of the Reno Air Racing Association, whose fraud has been documented at my websites, but more importantly, at the RARA site www.airrace.org, which has finally pronounced (2006) itself as an "Invitational, Entertainment Event" versus an open to all, Motorsports competition, along with the fact he uses strong arm tactics and thugs to get his way in Reno, and has Racketeering connections to corrupt in Law Enforcement and business in the area; 4) his (Campbell's) good buddy, the Great and Magnificent Diamandis (OZ ~ the humbug), who despite the fact that he and his rocket scientists can only "envision" (L.A. Daily News) that folks might see the Rocket Racers at altitude because of the exhaust flame, and don't for sure (!), know one way or the other, and whom, along with Whitelaw, think they're going to change the face of Air Racing, despite having to place limiters on the engine throttles to keep the aircraft from coming apart in the hands of an agressive pilot, and who claim "Rocket Racers" though the competitions will be conducted after the engines are off and the racers in glide, sure make the concept of Rocket Racing as a legitimate and viable sport Highly Questionable, especially when their racers will max out at 300 mph and Unlimited Air Racing is currently capable of speeds in the 500 mph lap venue; and then 5) Campbell, with a thirty year documented history of mental illness and criminal misconduct that includes stalking, harassment, domestic terrorism directed against fiance and ex-wife; impersonating a doctor; prescribing medicines without a license; impersonating a Japan Air Lines Boeing 747 pilot; trying to catch ultralights in his teeth (Statue of Liberty, New York, with picture no less...); false accusations against people he's worked with at Challenge publications; allegations of making false statements to the Secret Service regarding an alleged threat against the President by one of his enemies; his Federal perjury which resulted in the temporary shut down of over 60 of my websites, something which he will soon have to owe up to, hopefully along with a stay in a Federal Penitentiary; his selling out as a "Journalist;" his failure to abide by Journalistic Rules of Conduct and Ethics; and on and on it goes with this clown, and the FAA and Law Enforcement so far, have done virtually nothing about him. They take away his license, then give it back to him, though he's diagnosed as a schizophrenic by his Grandfather, a legitimate doctor. His mental condition is known by the FAA and the NTSB and they give him a license that no one else possessing his absolutely insane, if not inane, mentality, would get ~ particularly when it comes to their own Air Traffic Controllers! And then pilots are supposed to have a higher medical standard then ATC!? And then trying to profit personally on the blood of the victims of the Cerritos/Aeromexico air disaster with his Time Magazine pronounciations of Pull UP! Pull Up! For God's Sake Pull up! His day is coming, mark my words on that. The government can carry him around on their backs like a sacred cow all they want ~ especially a sacred cow whose one religious belief they have in him surrounds him giving them good press and his readers believing it as "Gospel" ~ but enough exposure in the Press and in the Courts, and his downfall will be just as hard and tragic as he will make it to be. Hopefully, he won't be taking out an airliner full of people with him! This individual shouldn't be flying; he shouldn't be in Journalism; he should be institutionalized, preferably, in a Federal Penitentiary, and anyone aiding and abetting his current existence in Journalism or Aviation, should be sent there along with him as an Accessory to his crimes. Especially, his good buddies at the FAA, Aero News and the RRL. Period. Vietnam Veteran...bull...according to the paperwork I have, which is nothing new on the internet, he didn't last half a year in the Air Force. The Air Force won't release information on him nor why he was discharged so quickly. Hey Campbell...let's see your DD Form 214 public, to include your RE code, moron! Campbell reminds me of the Leonardo DiCaprio character from "Catch Me If You Can." Only, he has nothing to offer that isn't already known as fraud and criminal misconduct that the FAA and the Law could outsmart, if they merely wanted to. Are prisons are full of people like him. I say, make room for one more!!! In fact, considering the conditions of the French Prison that held DiCaprio's character, I say send him to a French prison. Get his stink out of America, American Journalism and American Aerospace! And as for Diamandis making a Rocket Racer out of this clown ~ I think that holds up as the greatest proof of Diamandis' fraud, putting a mental defective in the cockpit of a rocket powered plane in close proximity to potentially hundreds of thousands of people on the ground... Diamandis annoints, and so be it! Someone needs to check the pilot selection criteria at RRL and X Prize, for that matter, and the medical requirements to be a Rocket Racer...they're getting a very dangerous start from the Government, whose head is turned away from such a sore subject as James R. "Captain Zoom" Cambell. |
