as I am not the proffesional, but I am interested in planes since I am playing the Microsoft flight simulator, and I wish to know more about aeronautics and techology of a plane.
Perhaps that is the source of the problem, and the angst.
Tech Log used to be a valuable stopping points for
professional pilots to look and see what is being discussed re: the finer points of our profession. A good first port-of-call for those tricky questions, or the I-wonder-how-that-came-to-be musings after a day's flying.
It is understandable that there are a number of flight simmers and high schoolers that have an interest in aviation and would like to know more.
But, enthusiasts, what reaction would you expect if you walked into a truck driver's bar and started asking 'where does the air come from for the air brakes?'
Would it not be more appropriate to place your questions in the Spectators Balcony forum, populated by genteel and helpful pilots inclined to answer such questions.
