Why I hate fly-ins...

Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

Yeah... But I hope no one is offended - I didn't mean to dress anyone down.
 
Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

We should probably suspender the puns and get back to the point of the thread.
 
Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

I'm not needling you, but what is the point?

I disagree, the important part and the one that disturbs me is this:



If you have never heard anybody suggest that 123.45 is not a chat line, you have not read the AIM as it is not listed as one of the air to air chat frequencies.

When I say I have never heard anyone object to 123.45 as a chat line until now I'm just stating fact. I also have not memorized every freq table in the AIM. Guess I'm a substandard pilot. And gosh, I don't even use the freq! How hosed up are all those guys who actually use the coveted 123.45 freq? You must think they really suck.

[/snark]

Maybe people could get off their high horses and stop the implied disrespect for not knowing as much as they do.

Librairains..sheesh.

Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

I take no stocking puns and hat them almost as badly as I hat fly-ins. ;)

Y'all are just skirting the issue you know
 
Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

I think there are some breeches of netiquette going on here.
 
Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

I'm going to lunch. I need to scarf down some food.
 
Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

Ooops, this thread made a hard left to the punny and I missed it...

In that spirit I told my FO the only ten puns I know so he could choose which made him laugh so i could post it here. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.

You should have searched the Internet blogs and found a pun dit instead.

I find it Ironic and rude.

I don't claim to know all that much nor do I claim to know everything in the AIM, but then I'm just a Private Pilot and don't even have an instrument licence let alone anything thing else ('cept a tailwheel endorsment)

I thought it disturbing that someone who was pontificating on the board about being a professional pilot would admit to not reading the AIM.

Then they get all bent out of shape when I mention I feel that situation is disturbing and decided that makes it ok to call me names.

I guess I'm not allowed to express my feelings unless I'm willing to open myself up for attack....

Hey wait, :idea:is this the spin zone?

I was gonna comment on the threads sooner, but didn't want to jacket up ...

I never called you or anyone a name.

What do you guys think professional pilots do? Sit around and read the AIM and FARs? They don't. We are not even issued said documents. We operate based on OpSpecs that the company and POI ensure are compliant with latest directives from the FAA.

I am not unique in this. No airline pilot reads that stuff unless he also flies GA on his own time.

Stop pretending to know what I should know until you have walked in my shoes. I'm happy to share what I know and how we operate and share experiences and such. But I grow tired of defending why I don't know some freqs AIM assignment or why I don't know some FAR by number. I knew that stuff when it applied to the flying I did. It doesn't now.

I stay out of conversations that I don't have knowledge or dont apply. I do, sometimes land at small fields with fly-ins going on and have to work my way into traffic too so I deemed this topic relevant.

I'm not angry or mad. I'm just trying to show another side of aviation.

I think the AIM gives you some slacks in the recommendations.

Some civility would go a thong way.

Well maybe the topic was done and it was time to stick a fork in the thread?
 
Re: Why I hat fly-ins...

Well, if there is anything more to say on the subject, perhaps we should jacket up.
