You know, a year ago, well about 7 months ago a good friend of mine, a kid
who I held as a baby, left his leg and a fair amount of blood on a road I
had traveled the year before. A place called Taji, north of Baghdad. All he
was doing was providing a security escort for some water trucks or milk
trucks or something, doesn't really matter, fact is I visited him at Walter
Reed and here is this fine young man missing his right leg at 25 years old.

Make a long story short, I am so happy that my 172 is about to sell because
I can now look forward to a deposit on a Mark III and adventures that might
only poorly match the likes of others on this list. But I have all my parts,
everything still works reasonably well, I live in a country where I don't
have to appease some descendent of a feudal lord to be granted the grand
privilege of flying about anywhere I want and I am surrounded by fellow
Americans.

Point is, there are battles worth fighting and this isn't one of them.
Really, trust me on this. In another month no one will remember fabric on
tubes or not, they will remember hard feelings between members of the same
team. There are much larger dragons to focus on.

My two cents worth.

Mountain Fox 8, out.

JetPilot;

Do believe the Moron that you refer to, is you. If I ain't too Moronish, I
believe you fired the first salvo when you attacked Firebug of why he
removed the fabric from a perfectly good airplane. and then it escalated
from there. The hypocritical loudmouth I belive in the case is you also, as
you seem to forget who attacked whom.

As for being a spineless fool, I'll stack my life time experience up to
yours and we will see who is spineless.

I personally think you are loudmouth spoiled brat that goes and sits on the
pity potty and pouts when you don't get your way.

If you believe that being a jet pilot makes you some kind of hero, and
smarter than everyone else in the world you need to take a hand full of
smart pills and see what the real world is about.

Maybe you should consider building something besides a Kolb, as there is a
bunch of this Old Spineless Moron Fool in those planes. I feel sure that
you wouldn't feel safe flying with the Spineless Moron Fool items in it.

Hi Ted

Lovely, I laughed out loud. Thats beautiful. TYhere are not many of those
in the House of Lords these days. ***** Tony Blair has seen to that.
The Upper House tends to be filled by business men or those who have made
some extraordinary contribution to the Country. They are often very expert
in their field and best of all, as they are there for life, they can
actually say what needs saying without any fear of not being re elected next
time.

The Lower House (House of Commons) is populated by politicians who have
never held down a job in their lives except in politics and they are forever
looking over their shoulders for the latest change of opinion from the
public so that they can stay in office.

I certainly wish that we had some of your freedoms but I am very grateful
than when an ultrlight flies over my garden I know that the airframe won`t
fall apart and that the pilot will have had some training.

Cheers

....some feudal Lord...LOL
