Honestly, I have no problem with the thread in question having been moderated. If inappropriate comments or unverified information was posted, it should be removed. What I have issue with is whom performed the moderation as it was clearly not done without Bias. I personally know and respect Ian, I also know he is friends with TBM and some of their affiliates. I also witnessed Ian flying this aircraft, wearing a TBM shirt! Bit difficult to be unbiased under these circumstances and should have been left for another moderator to review and edit as necessary... My last word on the subject...
