Default RE: Airplane Decision - Down to 2

Edge,

I have nothing personal against Scott. I think he is a good kid and a good flyer. It's just at this stage of the game he would be alot better off listening alot more and giving less advice. He has a very limited real world experience in RC, and is all over the RC forum dispensing advice about planes that he has no real experience with. Ask him how many of the giant scale planes he is talking about in these forums does he actually own, or even have any first-hand experience with. I just feel that anyone giving advice on such a widely read forum should be speaking from experience, not a compilation of what he has read or heard other people talk about. He is certainly not the only one. There are a couple others that I know about on this site that do exactly the same, and no telling how many others I don't know about. I have been flying for about twenty-five years, but there are alot of areas of the hobby I don't have any experiece with, but when I post to these forums it is about facets of the hobby that I have experience with, and when I am giving my opinion about something here, I make sure that people know it is my opinion, not an undisputed fact. But I feel that I get much more out of the forums by reading, listening and learning than I do by trying to teach what I don't know.
