I'm not sure it's a good idea to encourage Johnny to try real flying.
If he has half the problems with a real plane as he does with his toy versions....Lord help the local folk.

RC "pilots" take great umbrage when you call their airplanes "toys".

This people disagree though...

I know quite a few RC pilots, and we all call our airplanes toys!

You have to admit, it's kind of fun watching Krause and Eriksson 'gang up' on Herring
over something so ridiculous.

What a laugh!

Ganging up?

I told you that I am not knocking your RC flying hobby. It's fun for many.

You are the one who is trying to convince me and others that flying a RC
airplane is similar to real flying.

There are similarities. Period. That's all anyone here has said.

I think that ingrained pilot arrogance is rearing its ugly head.

Done for today. Sleep well.

I can more clearly understand why some consider you an asshole.
I wasn't looking for a fight nor was I boasting about having a pilot's
license. I acknowledged that I wasn't knocking your hobby and I
acknowledged that I am not a "natural" pilot and didn't particularly
find it relaxing or even fun.

You are the one who asked what the differences where. I tried to
present a few and you respond with the pilot arrogance thing.

You remind me of an old lady sometimes. Amazing that you made it in the
Army for so long.

Coulda fooled the **** right out of me!

It was not me who responded with the pilot arrogance thing, although I'll admit to
using the word later.

Good morning!

Some consider me an asshole because I'm assholish.
