SNS3Guppy, I am pleased you are having time at home and whilst I am not in the least concerned about your time I think it would be an opportunity for you to review your response to earlier posts of mine on another thread on "Tech Log" reference "Aircraft with no loss of Oil Pressure Procedure".
Oh, good God. Listen up, you antiquated old nutcase; if you can't keep your comments within one thread, and drop this obsession, it's time to stick you on the ignore list with the other fruitcakes.

You are absolutely obsessed with this issue. I've asked you not to PM. I've quietly encouraged you to shut your yap. The thread in question was shut down at length, in part due to this same stupidity that you pursue. Enough already. This is not the first thread to which you've followed me, yapping like a wounded poodle about the damn engine. Give it a rest, already.

Well...as a norm for me in these sorts of disagreements (referring to the T56 reduction g'box, to which I hasten to add, IS lubricated by the same oil as the engine! I had the unfortunate experience one time of having the g'box scavenge pump fail, and the subsequent pumping of the entire engine oil contents into the gearbox, which of course, forced me to shut it down!),
I make a point of asking the question of the opposer:

"How do you want your barley, before or after the horse?"

Guppy's true colours to the fore

SNS3Guppy. Your outburst is an indication to me, and no doubt others, that you are "rattled" by my continued attempt to get you to admit you erred. Yes you did ask me not to PM you, after my one and only PM, a request I have honoured. You see Sir, this is not about whether or not I know the T56 better than you, IT IS ABOUT A PRINCIPLE. You "namecall" and highlight only those parts of posts which suit your response. Why did you not highlight the pertinent parts. You are, at the very least, incapable of admitting your mistakes and at worst a fraud. Put me on your ignore list if you will, I could care less. Until you find it within yourself to be honest I and others will just dismiss you and your rants. As for me being an "antiquated old nutcase", I think I have been more than fair in seeking to have you address my requests. You see Guppy, no matter what you write, or think, I know I have been correct all along. I also know that if I were shown to be wrong I would admit it was so. As I said, the real issue is your lack of the capacity to accept that you erred which is at the heart of my persuit of an apology. It is a PRINCIPLE, not an OBSESSION.

Very well, then. The proper treatment for a stalker:

This message is hidden because Old Fella is on your ignore list.

Hardly. That particular poster can't let go, and brings the same obsession to thread after thread, to private messages, and into irrelevant conversations. It's absolutely ridiculous. He missed the point entirely in the original thread, and can't seem to let it go. Moreover, he was wrong to begin with. Producing type certificate data sheets and documentation to establish and prove that fact still didn't do it for him, and more than enough time has been wasted responding to him in the original thread.

I'm certainly not going to validate him by doing it here, there, or elsewhere. He's had his five minutes of fame, and regardless of whatever level of senility drives his passion, I am not obligated to help fuel it every time he pops up with his one-track drive. If he wants to keep it going let him do it by himself. For the present, he's on the ignore list, and I find that an acceptable solution until he quits blathering, shuts up, and finally turns his attention back to the great grandkids, or whatever may float his boat.

Thread Creep in extremis!

Started off with someone asking about manuals, I introduced a bit of humour, and now its a slanging match.

Enough, OK!

Back to the topic

Porkis,
I do have some stuff for you if you would like to PM me. Just keep in mind that not all the numbers etc. may not be the same as your company's op's specs.

A Challenge for Guppy and others.

Guppy has put me on his ignore list. My challenge to Guppy, and anyone else who does not hold to the principle of "Admit it if you are wrong", is to read my post "Time at Home" on this thread and show me where I was incorrect. It is pretty simple really. As is his usual response Guppy claims "Moreover, he was wrong to begin with". Well Guppy and any others who share Guppy's view, SHOW ME WHERE I WAS WRONG. Sure, it is thread creep, but a principle is involved. When the only defence one has is to ridicule another with a differing view it is no defence at all. Guppy is able to call people "Trolls", "liars", "fruit cakes" and numerous other names with impunity. The problem for me is that Guppy has set himself up as an all knowing authority on almost every subject on this forum. Where anyone dares to question his opinion they are subjected to his tirades. Well, I must be mistaken. I understood the purpose of this forum was to, in part, expand the knowledge of each other. It is obvious that Guppy cannot or will not accept any opinion other than his own. A pity really for one with his vast experience to be so beligerent toward and dismissive of others.

Do you actually mean that you pay attention to his so-called 'tirades'?
Most folks have long ago dismissed his posts as far too long and boring, in the extreme...or misinformed, in many cases.

Tirades

411A I am not really interested in becoming involved with a fued between you and SNS3Guppy which, reading exchanges between the two of you, seems to exist. My ONLY INTEREST is in having Guppy admit to having made an incorrect statement, whether made by accident or because he did not know the system on which he commented. If Guppy is as experienced as he claims, and if he has held the various positions claimed, he should have much to offer. It is a pity that he apparently believes his knowledge in all things is unquestionable because, to me at least, this aspect of his persona discourages any attempt at sharing knowledge.
