oh I understand now. The

"Please don't even get me started on the idiots that fly some corporate jets"

which is right up there with

"some of my best friends are black"

was applied to corporate pilots like me who are spending the afternoon working out whether an arrival and departure are possible from Santos-Dumont using Guru and the AFM in order to ensure I have accelerate stop, accelerate fail go, 115% go, close in obstacle climb performance OEI, distant obstacle clearance OEI etc but you're the one who departs on an IFR plan with his plane too heavy to comply with an IFR gradient if you switch on the wing and engine anti ice?

yup, totally get how unprofessional I am now.. sod it, I won't bother, its a nice day and I'm by Copacobana beach, I'll go and look at some bottoms instead and wing it tomorrow..
