Jon,
I have no problem with constructive critisism....and I would never try to
discourage discussion and admonishment when due. Critisism is one thing.
Insultive language is another.
My original response was rather pointed at the statement made by Jeff
Edwards: "Please, if not for your own sake and the sake of your passengers--
then for the rest of us, don't fly an airplane with a problem
that renders it "unairworthy". I can't afford it."
To suggest that other pilots make a decision based on everyones monetary
risk is not sound advice. The PIC is responsible for deeming
airworthiness....period. The FAR is rather clear about that.
The following response by Jack Kane was down right insulting and arrogantly
disrespectful. No gentleman who is interested in having an "available topic
of discussion" would respond with statements which include: "Based on
experience with the "experimental mindset", I feared that your advice might
fall on too many deaf ears. And guess what: it took only 9 hours to produce
the following moronic emission, suggesting that you had somehow committed an
unforgivable betrayal, to wit:". And: "Too bad this guy couldn't make it
beyond the first sentence of 91.7(b).". This is no discussion but rather
arrogant drivel which circumvented the point that I was trying to
make........
Discuss away....but don't insult in the process. Flaming, no matter how
intellectual is still flaming and no honorable gentleman would participate
in it.
I challenge anyone to quote the part of any message where I indicated that
the pilot made a "correct" decision. Good luck. I personally would not
have made the same decision, but who am I to judge another PIC's decision
when I am 1000's of miles away and don't have a clue.
