I've met with lots of people off the boards over the last 12 years or so. But I don't think I've flown with anyone that I didn't know IRL first.I've flown with quite a few people off the boards over the years, even made some great enduring friendships IRL through them.
I have flown with a fair number of people here. Some have even let me fly their airplane for a bit, but I have never had anyone here as a passenger in an airplane where I am the PIC, mainly because I don't have an airplane.I've met with lots of people off the boards over the last 12 years or so. But I don't think I've flown with anyone that I didn't know IRL first.
Then again, most of my flying is solo. I've only flown with instructors, my parents, and a few friends. I think only one of those friends was a pilot. Well, I've flown with a safety pilot and my airplane's former owner too, but did not meet either of them on the boards.

Holy crap. I need to find something else to do.
Nice to have met you too, Kent. And various others.
You sure those rankings aren't just for a year?

I would definitely boil down to a competition between him and Kent.Is there a way to rank by number of words or letters?, you might be able to get the first place in that case
... I'm sure a consideration in AOPA cleaning house was possible legal encounters due to the personal attacks on their board and the experience of AvWeb shortly before that....

...Now it seems that the place is overrun with keyboard superheros who would rather b*tch at each other about grammar than talk about flying... much less DO something flying related...
This probably won't make you feel any better, but from what I've seen, I would estimate that only one percent of grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors here get commented on, so it looks to me like the people who think those matter are exercising quite a bit of self restraint.
Isn't that a run-on sentence?

I joined in May of 2007 in the wave of RAP refugees. So far I've only met one POAer in person and it was at a technical conference unrelated to flying (other than it pays for my flying).
Anybody want to try for a central Florida meetup in January?
