VSF:
the tired and emotional Chugalug2's views :
Lol! Clever play on words there, if I may say so, by implying an inebriated state cleverly linked to my user name. 7...no, 8 out of 10 for creative writing! But we still need to grasp the idea here. You make a sweeping statement to counter others' posts, your forte if I may say so, in this case suggesting that tuc's and my preoccupation with airworthiness does not match your observation of accidents, particularly those of helicopters. That is then countered in turn, with authority if I may say so, by nigegilb and tucumseh. The idea then is to answer their posts in turn with your detailed answers, or perhaps, though unlikely I must admit, to concede their points. What is quickly rumbled around here, though, is to drop that line and start another on a completely different tack, the sort of tactics that, for instance, the MOD delight in. Oh, wait a minute, oh I see...
Season's Greetings to you VSF,...Cheers!...Doh!
