Thumbs up comms.

Why I feel compelled to chirp in I'll never know.
Yr.right (here goes) for what its worth,
You may be a very good engineer, but no matter how accomplished a
Technician you are, unless you become more articulate, and less
Defensive, no one is going to take you seriously.
Why do I care?
Because it is the completely unrelated responses and reactions found in threads
Such as this, that pilots and flying enthusiests remember above all else.

Trust me, I have seen first hand how vocal individuals, through emotive
And inflammetory responses have helped pursuade the demise of a facility and the
Loss of hundreds of jobs, along with the perception that we were all obstructionists.

What these few individuals were saying may have been right, but by putting it across
In a confrontational way won few friends.
I get the feeling there is a growing perception lame's are one of the problems in GA.
And this does nothing to kurb that perception.

Im guessing neither you, or i have worked on diesels in aircraft, I look at this as I might actually Learn something. I miss the training i used to get.
None of us know everything. If you have some useful information regarding the title of the thread, I'd love to hear it. Have your own opinion about it, great, but tell me why,
One thing I have seen is the inference that a solid state Fadec control might be good, but i have changed a few ignition control modules and voltage Regs that have failed internally, so, unless its made by Honda, forget it! (They were ducati regs!)
