Unhappy

Right well I'm entering the debate like it or not.

Firstly, CFI is the moderator and as such has every right to lock a thread. Don't bicker or argue that's just the wayt it is. Editorial judgement can be argued all day and all night but at the end of the day the editor makes a decision and that's final.

I have little sympathy for the complaint that this site is somehow ominously 'controlled' or 'censored'. Some damn evocative stuff appears here and it will continue to do so.

I admit that on first reading I was annoyed by the JJflyer comment. I was tempted to lock it myself. Then (as usual) I thought it better to leave it to be slapped down by others. Career instructors are gold-dust and I have nothing but respect for them.

I'm an instructor and have been for over 5 years (mostly part time) and I am damned proud of that fact. This forum is invaluable and I hardly think that only 2 lock outs in all its history justifies anybody to have a go at editorial policy.

Safe flying everybody,
