Sorry, BUT, quote from Tailwheel only yesterday:
Another type of thread that gets up our nose:
Quote:
"I'm thinking of doing a TIF/GFPT/PPL/CPL/Space Shuttle Endorsement etc. What is all the good and bad about flying schools at Bankstown/Archerfield/Upper Wallop"
Or words to that effect, by a new user, often first post. Our achives must contain hundreds and hundreds of pages on almost every flying school in Australia - why don't users use the Search function?
This inevitably leads to some pre pubescent kid, posting from the vast experience and technical competence of a 15 minute TIF, to post:
Quote:
"Don't go to
XYZ Flying School, they are a rip off and their instructor Fred Nurks is an incompetent idiot."
Then we have a potential libel or defamation case on our hands!
There is no such thing as "free" speech on this or any other web site, nor is there total anonymity on this or any other web site - as some have discovered to their detriment over the years.
Or inevitably, the other type of response:
Quote:
"I did my GFPT/B747 endorsement at
ABC flying school and they are excellent."
Which a little research by Mods confirms comes directly from that school's owner or CFI - check the links - trying to get in a free plug!!!
Search function is there to be used.
