Certain avcom subcribers are having a go at us again

Check out this lot,

Without any form of motivation, certain idiots from avcom are having a go at us again

Why is it that these guys continually feel it necessary to pick on us?

Hey we are better than these miscreants. We know we can fly, we don't have to prove it to anyone

Morph there are cowboys in all catogories of flying but we only hear or read of them after an incident.

I think, typical,

Avcom seems to be personality driven. Pity, coz an excellent forum is being dominated by a handfull ego - maniacs.

The purpose of information sharing and on-going training seems to be highjacked at any chance to stamp authority with antagonism and insults.

Seems to come mostly from a handfull of under- employed com pilots and wanna- be supposedly 'hire 'n fly' low milers hiding behind glamorous jet fighter avatars.

I'd appreciate any 'correction' offered to me for any unknown 'offences' but if presented in the same sarcastic belittling manner would be responded with a traditional 'snot klap'.

Avcom does not have subscribers.

It does have a number of members who believe they know all and believe they are somehow better than others, and never make a mistake.

:lol:

I have been following that thread with great enjoyment.

Avcom while it certainly does have many an informative discussion it tends to degenerate to name calling and gross generalization whenever microlights are mentioned by a few people. But Avcom has a large member base and you are bound to attract several a$%# holes.

I firmly believe that this mainly due to jealousy and indignation that they have to pay huge amounts of money to get and stay aloft. And as such they think that they have exclusive rights to the air.

But it is a small group of aviators that feel this way aswell, so lets not brand the whole of Avcom.

Real pilots love flying.

Even a heli accident has to get microlights mentioned, at least we know they think about us a lot... :lol:

Funny how people think they are more important than you when they have bigger toys.
Children are exactely the same.
I certainly would never look down on paragliders, hot air ballons ( just because they are slower) etc.

Like they say... you get the super arseholes everywhere.
That poor poepol must be very carefull, he is so CLEVER that his brain might explode. Then he will be out of the gene pool too......And DAMN, how will i be able to live without clever people like that. Cant bear the thought! If he is not there anymore, who will help us to understand aviation? Scary....VERY scary.......

:shock: When you have a group of people in a club, town, buiness or any other large gatehering you will probably find that most are honest, nice people. Never think that because some apples in a barrel are rotten that all are rotten. Generalisations are unwise. Many flyers of blik aries are avid flyers of micros as well...

Morph, the problem is guys who bad mouth other people iether hide behind a nick name on the forum or behind forty of his buddies when confronted face to face, simply because they dont have the ballitjies to say these things when face to face with whoever it is they are talking about!

I fully agree with demon, these clowns dont even consitute 1% of the avcom forum! These guys in question are a bunch kids on the avcom forum who obviously dont have anything more Intellectual to discuss amoung each other!


Just ignor these dicks.... all they want is for us to retaliate! lets not give them a kick out of it, unless its something serious coming from someone who knows what they are talking about! To these guys guys on avcom:
