Thanks for the heads up DB.
Maybe my post was interpreted incorrectly or maybe I did not do a good job of expessing my intent but the following is the only post I see that could have been interpreted as a personal insult.
Say a new guy comes up to you at the flying field. Are you honestly going to tell him to guy buy a turbine plane if he can afford it to learn on.
I think not, at least I hope not. That would but stupid any way you put it. Philisophically, scientifically stupid. And yes, that would classify anyone that gives that advice as a moron if you told them so.
I was not saying the Mike was stupid. I know first hand that noone gets through engineering school if they are stupid.
What I was trying to say was that it would be stupid for anyone to recommend to a beginner to get a turbine plane. And I stand by my statement that only a moron would do that.
From Mikes latest post I conclude that he would not recommend this therefore my comments do not pertain to him personally.
Mike, sorry if you took that the wrong way.
Oh ya, Its FRIDAY! [sm=sunsmiley.gif]
Everyone have a great weekend at the field!
