Tony, as someone who's been running the site since it started I have to ask why you think we'd remove your post?
It's us who are being belted by low flying lawyers missives regarding a long running thread here on affairs at another GA field and we take it all in our stride. It happened last year with a thread regarding another UK operation.
As I wrote before nothing that goes on in UK GA can suprise me. However, a mild 'it takes two sides' won't cut it in this case. The Welshman was looking after our interests in two ways. He gave excellent advice regarding flight training to all those new to aviation and he made it brutally clear to the Phoenix that whether to us, his club/FTO or the CAA SRG group that he or she would have to front up with solid information at some point if wishing to persist with such claims.
It is obvious that Phoenix is willing to do that privately whatever the merits of the case and thus, you will note and I'm sure Phoenix will confirm, not one word of their multiple posts has been altered, edited or deleted.
For those who need it spelling out: the Welshman could have made all those points using another ID. He did it with a moderators subtitle as it offers us a more substantial defence if needed. Why?????
Phoenix while admittting, what might seem to some, breathtaking naivety also alleges serious failings at a school. Despite this being The PROFESSIONAL PILOTS Rumour Network more than 95% of our legal problems stem from aggrieved Flight Training Organisations/Airfield Operators. In this way we were able to allow an important debate to continue. It may well be you'd do it another way - that's fine by me. Collectively PPRuNe challenged the story repeatedly while offering thought through advice.
I find that People Skills singularly fail to stop lawyers trying to take away my home. I hope you'll understand if not agree.
Regards
Rob Lloyd
