Some of us non-pilots try to post info that has value. But it is what it is. Ifyou don't want me posting here, let me know. I'll quit typing replies and comments that end up in the round file. Thanks in advance for your consideration...
We have had no way of knowing your expertise, or lack of, until this response of yours.
A recent poster from the USA contributing in the C-130 Australian crash thread was adamant that he is/was an ADS-B expert and derailed the thread comprehensively with his ‘proof’ that the wings folded whilst at a significant altitude, despite advice to the contrary. That sort of problem cannot help but influence our moderation of new signups who appear within these high profile threads.
FWIW he also claimed your sort of experience; but please continue to contribute on the understanding that not everything will make it onto the thread.
And to those having issues against this moderation, you are welcome to your opinions. Just don’t expect them to remain on view in this thread.
