The problem with posting is that quite often the reply can sound much harsher than intended. [:'(] I was just trying to say that just because someone gets to the field, gets there pin, goes to startup and finds that someone else is on that frequency that didn't get the pin doesn't make them 'dis-courteous'.

I've been the first to the field before and didn't grab the pin (usually I do though). If I would have been shot down it would have been no one's fault buy mine!!! If i don't have the pin, i land and go and get it so that there's no safety issues and to be respectful of the other fliers..
