Query, I understand your view.
Facts are:
1) I always made clear both in my Profile and in my posts that I was a BAE employee.
2) Unfortunately there were people in BAE who did not like the fact that I was so involved with PPRuNe. They sought to make my employment position uncomfortable by posting hugely negative comments about BAE. Thus placing me in a potentially difficult position. I responded to this by posting the truth, and, by banning them for their purely malicious intent. Note that since Christmas last year when I was leaving the negative Jerez threads evaporated.
3) I can stand by any advice I have given. It is still my rational view that any young man willing to be single and looking for an ab initio ATPL self sponsored is best served by BAE in Jerez. I have nothing to gain from such advice. And when I was there it was a constant headache that I ran PPRuNe Wannabes - certainly Dave Shiner nice guy though he is who is the Marketing Manager - would never ever encourage me to comment upon BAE in a positive manner.
4) Send Clowns has complied with the letter of my requests regards SFT affiliation - however, not one post of his fails to promote SFT in the most glowing terms and this is starting to sound a little sychophantic.
5) Your input is - as always - welcome.
Kindest Regards,
