Much as I think a place exists for both sites I think that the attitude of the "moderator" (it's my site and I will delete what I want) is very sad. I placed 4 items on airmech reference "chris's" attitude towards both pprune and non-engineers, all deleted, no answers + he changed his initial comments on pprune.
As for pprune being a "slow" site, airmech is now slowing due to the c*!p surrounding the site.
I am sure it has taken plenty of your time to set up the site but please let your military hang-ups (them & us) die in the past! I would love to meet you to see if you are the chipped up guy that you appear.
Please feel free to ban me from your site if it gives you that feeling of power that you obviously lack in the real world.
