Yep, don't question anything/anyone, just do as you are told and follow the flock.

It's free (no.....no it isn't !), everything will be fine, this way come on in, obey !

By all means, tell us what the "in" crowd is doing...the cool guys who question everything and don't follow the flock. Is there a secret handshake to get into that society, or do they just do the same thing as everyone else, just not admit it?

Those generally are the type of people Flyingwalenda mentioned, that tell you not to question anything/anyone, and just do as you are told and follow the flock.

Oh ya, he has laser focused precision on questioning things, he has an uncanny ability to make 100% correct calls. Always after the fact though.

That poor guy disappears like a fart in the wind when pressed for any specifics. He launches a "Sheeple" every now and then, and vague generalities, and then poof...gone. Still waiting to see anything even remotely close a plan on what a new EC would do if some of these big keyboard talkers had their way. So far nothing. Just more of the usual. Yes, lot's of here is what I would have done differently before...but nothing about going forward. They can't even say who would be part of the EC (and no, it's not them because they are busy with soo much other stuff). So to recap, lot's of feel good sloganeering about change, and new leadership. and throw the bums out.....alas nothing in terms of here's some folks to step up and guide us, and here is what they are going to do.

Tell you who has got more on the ball than 100 of the other type you mentioned combined....DUG. If your club is on public property, might want to start looking into that group and figure out what you're going to do when they show up looking to fly at your field.

Meanwhile, the Sheeple whisperer drones on.......

So you spam this site with links to your site where we are supposed to overpay for a poorly executed bumper sticker, an in turn line your pockets, and this is supposed to help the cause? FYI the ship has sailed.

Capitalism at it's best!

Actually, I'll offer the same bumpersticker only bigger, 12 x 4, for $2.99 shipped. For every bumper sticker sold I'll call the FAA and complain too.

There Use to be a saying If U don't have something good to say Keep your trap shut OH OH that ain't it it's "Don't say anything".

Why is that those that love to give advice never take it themselves? Woof.

Speaking of good taste...spamming discussion threads with self serving stuff to sell ain't cool, least not in my book. Let him take it to the marketplace where sales belong no?

Hey Man it's very appropriate for the discussion at hand. Stop whining and go fly something. GEES to cold tere in Hartford CT go some place warm. Beats the hell out snow rain and crap. Not one drop of rain int Phoenix valley in the month of February. 83 and 3 to 5 outa the south by Noon. http://www.wunderground.com/us/az/ap...:85120.1.99999

BOOM! 1.2 Mega Tons of Woop arschs. Scared the crap out of the Russians in the 60's

To be fair I do understand where you are coming from.

I didn't much like the 'D' word at first but when you research the history of it being applied to RC aircraft there is no point denying it.
