Hello Agaricus Bisporus,
All in good humor
Young lads come here to ask questions, some people give serious answers.
However, occassionally enters (I'm not implying BOAC now as he usually has some interesting input) the old fart/geeser(more often than not on this board a threeholer). Feels a need to establish his superior aviation skills. Either knows the answer and enters into a rant about what a disgrace it is that young blokes aren't being properly taught anymore. He was, of course, thaught the proper way back when learning to fly the tiger moth or,
Doesn't know the answer and starts a rant about how people can't fly anymore without the gismo's and when he was thaught to fly on the old tiger moth they didn't have the gismo's and they did just fine, thank you!
Anyways, I too can fly without the gismo's, however, occasionally, I too wonder about what a gismo is displaying. I just find it interesting. Trying to find out as much as possible about the airplane is good airmanship too.
If someone however goes of the deep end in his questioning about unimportant things, this should also be adressed! Works better though when done in a non sarcastic way. Also good airmanship
Well, still curious for the answer!!
