Your attempt at forced teaming is noted.

It isn't "forced teaming," numbnuts. Not that you'd understand anyway.

You speak for yourself, not anyone
else, so "we" is inappropriate.

Incorrect. A number of us agree. However, once again, you're an
idiot.

Does he post in groups like that?!

I'm afraid so. Or at least he did.

Oh, dear. What does he think of 7-year olds being breast-fed?

In Hull it's the seven years olds who do the breast feeding.

Ah!

I've seen a 7 y/o being breast fed once (and not on LB)- I found it
disturbing!

People who cannot "actually" fly a plane are not pilots.

I think we can agree on that aspect.

But they may be able to steer a large ship to a berth, and still be a pilot.

But flying a real
airplane is different than a MS Flight sim program.

its amazing that needs to be said!

It will help, but nothing is just like being the driver.

I think that is true, people who fly planes seem to say that, its people
who dont fly who seem to need to rubbish it or make out its a full on sim.

I got an hour in an AT-6 for my
birthday last year. Doing loops and rolls is a heck of a lot different
in a
WW2 fighter trainer than sitting at the computer.

motion, risk, G forces......

Even taxiing down the
runway is different. Learned to had to do S turns down the taxiway as
you
can not see past the that huge radial engine, and would suck to run into
something on the taxiway or runway.

that last thing is one thing I *have* found in MSFS, you cant see where
you
are going! (in appropriate aircraft)

Interesting in the loops and rolls, is you did not notice any increase in G
force. Do the loop or roll correctly in the AT-6 and you stayed at appox. 1

pretty simple.

So someone who can fly a plane is a pilot, with or without the
credentials?

It's certainly one dictionary definition of the term.

You can pilot an Ultralight without a license.

I hate to travel

So why do you repeatedly post to travel newgroups?


He loves to be hated?

It's one of the few things at which he succeeds.

Mixi's goal in life is to subtract from the sum total of human knowlege.
He tries valiently with each post he makes to achieve his goal. But, like
everything else he's ever done, he fails.

Forced teaming occurs when you try to group others with yourself without any
obvious reason for doing so, in order to increase your own apparent
credibility or acceptance. Many people use the technique consciously or
unconsciously, sometimes for the purpose of manipulating others.

Incorrect. A number of us agree.

And a number don't, so "we" gives the false impression of a consensus.

And their method of confirming that the survey answers were accurate
is ... ? Or that the internal survey results were accurately reported?

Ask them, not me.

I checked with the lurkers and 84 per cent of them agree with DGS. So "we"
seems to be an accurate descriptor.

And you, Anthony, are the perfect example. Still trying to group yourself
with those who know about flying when you don't know **** from shinola
about anything even remotely connect with aviation.
