To Mr Gladwin
I don't know you at all so have no axe to grind but the way you write your posts are so condisending and sound so elitetist that i feel if i had to ask you for advise i would come away wondering why i bothered.
People like Ali and a whole lot more people inspire would be jet pilots with their aproachability and help they give without sounding as if they know it all.
You may know or think you know more than anyone else on this subject but their is no need to come across as offensive as you do.
Sorry if you think i am being offensive to you but as i say, i don't know you so can only know what your words sound like on here.
Simon.
Agreed!! I was going to write a nasty message to Mr know-all but you said what almost all of us here are thinking but in an unagressive tone which is nicer.
I will say this: Mr Gladwinks, your constant boasts to all of us about your past positions of grandeur are annoying to say the least. Your attitude to other people and your lack of modesty makes it hard to believe you had ever reached the positions you claim. If I found out you were captaining the fight I had just boarded I would insist on being removed from the aircraft. If I found out you were going to be my training officer in our Hawk in the RAF, I would pull your ejection handle (over the ocean).
There. I've said it.
Ali, sorry for your loss. I too think you are an inspiration to all of us trying to get into this hobby.
Two great posts there !!
Mr Gladwin,
Arrogance is one of the worst of human traits and you have it in abundance !! In fact the dictionary pretty much describes you perfectly when decribing the trait
"an attitude of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or assumptions"
however most of the people that i have spoke to since your post have described you as many things, none of which i can type on a forum
