No-one has "god like status" apart from in their own minds of course!
As I mentioned many of us have posted on here for years, you get to know who to listen to and who to ignore. Many discussions do end up slightly circular, but that is nature of such things, especially amongst a bunch of ego filled pilots.
If you are seriously saying that the comments you posted were just to encourage debate, then don't be daft. You, I and everyone else knows that that is a
quintessential expression of the purest form of utter bollocks.
(Still makes me laugh everytime I read that. I hope you don't mind Ed, but I shall be using that phrase in the future!)
Simple rules to follow when posting here.
1) Don't type nonsense.
2) Don't type anything defamatory.
3) Make sure you can back up any statement you can make with facts.
4) Never be scared to ask questions. There is no such thing as a stupid one. Daft answers maybe.............
5) Keep a sense of humour and make sure you read other peoples posts properly.
