With you there, why not remove the mystery and post a pic of ourselves?

A few of us couldn't be bothered with "nicks" on the Forum. Whether or not to use a "nick" should remain as is - a personal choice.

As our late friend Junkie would say in jest ....

Everyone should get a cap with nick on the back... then atleast after chatting to someone for an hour with a microlighters cap, you will know who he is when he walks away... Or you could cunningly point wildly at something behind him :shock: and read his nick name when he turns around... and say "sorry Morph though that was a Concorde on approach, my mistake" :oops: .

Nicks are part of the fun - display as a badge on your flight suite or sticker on helmet. If you meet someone who is not a forum member then you won't have to explain and if they are then hearty hello's will follow.

Like the idea of a badge or sticker, often see guys landing at Rhino and wonder if they are on here :D

Couldnt agree more guys. Hence my nick of andreb.
It was Dieselfan and I that flew in to Kroon 2 weekends ago. I was in my lovely Polaris and DF in his Air Creation. The guys really welcomed us.
DF and I are mates, but he will have to give you his real name. Tjoek will have to as well.

Nick names are half of the fun, and trying to figure out who is who is cool - Some okes are exactly as I pictured them Demon, Duck Rogers but then some guys were completely different to what I expected like Darkhelmet (He has become a great friend of mine)

Bacardi - I don't think it will take you too long to ID me - 132kg male in the prettiest trike in town (Gemini) - I introduce myself as David

Thunderboy is the Dude to Speak to.

How about all the forum members doing the German salute when greeting anyone from now on. This way if two fellow forum members greet they will deftly know to ask what their forum name is.
