I have to say that with all the negativity so far in this thread that it's leaving me with the impression that not many people appreciate a helping hand. I can't help but see the irony in all this. I for one feel more at ease when taking my car into the shop seeing the technicians certificates and training records proudly posted on the wall and do not once think of him as a blowhard or self promoting. I guess when it comes to model airplanes the perception changes for some reason I am unaware of.
