No almost about it.you people are so sensitive. it's almost pathetic
No almost about it.
But here is my position: the first response to the OP was a snarky negative comment. THAT is what I call pathetic.
I will admit that I carried my argument on too long, but I just get sick of all the people that feel they have to find fault with every post. That is worse than the old Spin Zone ever was, yet it is allowed to fester.
And @gsengle, who happened to be my target de jure isn't even the worst offender.
Second, I really do cringe at "hater". It's kinda valley girl. No snark there either.
Moreso than "valley girl" it's the adopted word of political cults describing people who simply disagree with them.
It's a cringe inducing word to be sure.
Apology accepted, but not really required.Apologies wasn't intending any snark at all. He came out full bore defensive. It's common life wisdom that if you act defensive, there is something there. So it's not a good way to start.

I am not, and probably never will be a Cirrus driver. For the price of an air conditioner and a leather interior redo, my 50 year old Bo would beat the pants off of a Cirrus. But that doesn't meant Cirrus is a bad plane.so, what have we learned here, that cirrus planes and cirrus pilots are the most funnest to make fun of? you guys are cirrus bullies. holy SHTI it's beer:30, what am I doing posting on PoA, l8r....
Apology accepted, but not really required.
The OP's use of the word "hater " should probably have been something like "critic" instead. "Hater" is sort of trite and overused. I don't think people really HATE Cirrus. But they do automatically criticize Cirrus for some reason that escapes me.
Zima hater!I want a beer
I am "bi".Zima hater!
Pretty. But what are the odds that both of them would have broken retracts at the same time?

Nothing to be defensive about a Cirrus dude. It's a great plane and I love it. I specifically used the word hater because I knew the azzhats would come out in force. And it didn't take long to prove my point. So thank you for being accommodating.
Apparently the azzhats started to come out with the first post.Nothing to be defensive about a Cirrus dude. It's a great plane and I love it.

We all know Cirrus makes a great airplane. With a few hundred hours in a few different 22's, I'd agree.
I'm still going to make fun of everything the airplane and owners represent.. because it's funny. And I can. This isn't the end however. I'll MS Paint some more pictures in preparation for the next one. Look forward to seeing you all there.
The first step in being the part, is dressing like the part. #Bose #Cirrus #Bajillionaire #Aviators #RealPilot #MakeItRain
I *like* these train wreck threads. They're proof that the azz-hat behavior of people online had absolutely nothing to do with keeping or getting rid of political talk here.
Tons and tons of these annoying threads since the unicorns-and-rainbows folks ostensibly blamed it all on politics and partially banned it.

It's a funny thing with pilots and flying. Everyone loves their brand which is fine but I think flying is the only thing I have come across where not only do other peoples' brands suck but also they are doing it wrong. Most of my other hobbies are music, homebrewing, programming so maybe it is because those aren't type A things. Flying has this underlying competition that a lot of other things don't seem to have. I am fairly competitive at the office because there are wins and gains there. In flying you don't win anything for being righter than another guy.
I love all planes, even the ones with broken retracts that I can't afford.
As a charter member of the CB club, I don't really "get" the value of the cirrus over other options, but I don't "get" much about the aircraft market, so that's not very meaningful.
