Epiphany -
'Ears open, trap closed, listen and learn' was drummed into me.
and one of my similar mantras has always been "you have two ears & one mouth - consider using them in that proportion"!

Of course, if translated to a forum such as this, when we have two eyes and ten typing digits - any similarity to "two ears" really needs to be inverted, although quite often isn't on this forum !!

I feel we should also refer honourable members to the thread I mentioned earlier - http://www.pprune.org/rotorheads/446...iscussion.html as an example of heated, but now cooled, discussion between those who are prepared to learn, those prepared to share their experience, and those who like to spout off - be they experienced or not! As has been mentioned, all are welcome to post, but an element of balance, rather than vitriol, should be exercised.

Defending the indefensible, and living an upright existence at a 40 deg tilt, are all recipes for disaster, IMHO!
