marshallers

[brs planespotter]

is there a legal requirement for a a/c too be parked by a marscheller?i saw a "rampy" today use his hands as there were no marshallers around!he got the a/c bang on the block!does this frustrate you pilots when that happens?thanks

[Evanelpus]

What frustrates me is poor spelling, poor grammar and someone trying to be 'clever' by abbreviating, i.e. Rampy.

God help us all.

rampy

with respect we are commonly known as "rampys!

[Evanelpus]

If you are indeed a rampy, then you should know whether you are legally entitled to put the aircraft on stand/blocks.

I suspect this is a spotters question.

He's asking a casual question on an internet forum, not writing a letter to The Times...

What has a make-believe character called God got to do with things?

I suspect this is a spotters question.

In a spotters forum indeed - your real name is not sherlock is it ?

[simonchowder]

It is im afraid brs its half wits like you that have led to spotters/enthusiaists on this site to be viewed as imbeciles by many of the aviation pros

[HEATHROW DIRECTOR]

Punctuation corrected. Now re-read your post.

I think the normal term brs for someone who works on the ramp as a ground handler etc is not a rampy but a ramp- tramp

[brs planespotter]

[smudgethecat]

I thought you said you were a "rampy", or is that on your four days off from high speed driver training

[brs planespotter]

yes,you are spot on,like many have a 2nd job,rgds

[simonchowder]

I think that if brs was posting on the military section we would have had a "walt alert" by now

[brs planespotter]

what is "walt"please

Amazing thing I have witnessed. brs planespotter gets a dressing down on this thread, yet on another, Rainboe gives him a civil and polite response to his question.

Has the earth shifted on its axis?

[11Fan]

Oops, silly me. Forgot.

Walt.

Whoops! Browser Settings Incompatible

Edit: Funny thing this link above. It works (for me) but it has this strange title.

[draughtsman99]

There was me thinking a Walt was someone who, like Walt Disney, was good at telling fairy stories!!
The ramp tramp who started this thread, and continued it, with his lack of capitals, punctuation and paragraphs (we all make spelling mistakes) shows a total lack of respect for his intended audience.
