I've heard the comparison made before. They do seem to follow one another around here...

It may be fun for you, but for some of us it makes us wonder how aviation got dummed down to this level." oh this is fun. "
So here is my suggestion rfcPilot, post the regristration of your airplane here so the airplane mechanics can avoid working on it.
Then you can maintain it all on your own.
Give Darwins theory a chance to get some use.
The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no
After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.

Now I'm pissed- rcfPilot doesn't know the differance between lawn mowers and buicks- the shop rate I was talking about was for LAWN MOWERS-
I don't know any AME who drive new vehicles, we all are to use to keeping old shit running.
By the way, the most reciently new registered AA-1 on Jan 8, 2007, according to public information on the SMALL world of TC was CF-ATQ to some guy in southern Alberta!!! Sorry to the poor bugger if its not rcfPilot!

Public information is available to everyone. rfcPilot just told us he bought an aircraft and the type- Those who really care about not dealing with this guy already know who he is. Appollogies to the new owner's (there are two- again public information) of the above posted registration, I did not say it WAS rfcPilot, just that that aircraft was reciently registered!!
Point being this is a very small industry, and a lot of information is available to the public- the internet also allows you to find names, phone numbers, address, postal codes, etc etc-
so it would be a good idea not to go so far out of your way to antagonize the whole AME community with disregard for what we do professionally to support your hobby.

rfcpilot may not even own an aircraft. All his posts were taken at face value.
He may just be looking to stir up shit on an anonymous forum. Reality would sort him out if his story is actually factual.
Unfortunately factual information was posted and those owners may have a hard time should they ever have to convince someone they are not rfcpilot. It was a stupid thing to do, and completely void of any professionalism

Here's what his alter ego sent me today.. To me, rfc is now a non entity, I will only reply to his alter ego..

Wow. You have a real knack for embarassing yourself.
End quote.
It would be pretty interesting to see if someone could tell me how I embarassed myself.
I guess first to be embarassed, I'd have to care about CID's opinion, which I don't, so I just don't get how I was embarassed.
Maybe you guys like Cat, Chowda, Pat, Fixorfuckit, tehflyguy, can let me know how this one tool, or maybe they actually do the tag team thing, can embarass me?
To resort to PM harassment is the lowest, I've tried to explain this to CID before (as it's happened many times) but he just doesn't get it. Cat and I are two of the few on here that let people know who we are, so, therefore we have nothing to hide. If this person wants to discuss things or harass me, then come on, let's do it in the public forum. I have nothing to hide.. If you want to continue to send me harassing PM's, well expect them to be posted.
CID, as much as you think you are above and beyond everyone else, really you are so far behind, you just think you are ahead..
To quote the all knowing one:
quote:
If you're really so concerned you have two options:
A) Shut the @#$! up
B) Get a moderator involved
end quote.
It's just way too funny dealing with fools. They make it too easy for the rest of us. At least it keeps us entertained...

Really.... I think gli77 said it perfectly. Some of you spend way too much time on here when you're supposed to be working. Oh wait, some of you are working... On making assumptions (which makes some of you look like idiots) and destroying the reputation of a new aircraft owner.gli77 wrote:Brilliant people. You may have just caused someone grief who may not be rfcpilot.
Yeah we're a professional bunch!
To that I say congrats to you all, be proud! hahaha.
Twotter,
You should take your own advice and stop responding. I use the PMs appropriately and personally I wouldn’t think of dragging “private” comments into the public arena. To anyone who wants to send me a PM, please feel free to do so without any threat of malicious exposure. I can't promise the same for private messages to twotter.
Furthermore twotter, your constant attempts at linking usernames between entities you don’t like, are quite unproductive. You will gain a great deal of credibility if you maintain focus on the subject matter at hand instead of making personal attacks. Although you claim to have several years experience, the level of maturity indicated by your school yard tactics belies your claims.
rfcPilot seems to be rather young and misinformed but your behavior is doing more harm than good. I see nothing but negativity and insults coming from you twotter.
And now this thread has gone truly into the gutter with the surprising suggestion from Cat Driver that rfcPilot's registration be exposed. Its quite ironic that this grown man is using tactics that he venomously accuses TC of using to destroy him financially. Don't you two know how to debate an issue without trying to destroy someone's identity? Don't you know how to behave in an anonymous public forum?
Gentlemen, come down off your pedestals and start contributing positively to these discussions. You'll be surprised how much more effective your statements will be. Your constant negativity is tiring.
I also suggest you seek help for your little anger problems. I'm not a psychiatrist (I'm not even sure I spelled it right) but I detect some serious social issues.
To the moderators, I apologize for bringing this side-discussion to the public forum and not the private messaging system. Unfortunately the word “private” means little to these two.
I assume this forum is anonymous for a good reason. It has the potential to be an excellent place to discuss things without the fear of real world retribution. The potential for the exchange of meaningful dialog is great. Cat Driver and twotter continue to violate the spirit of these discussions by constantly deriding anonymous contributors and trying to expose the identity of ANYONE who disagrees with them or finds fault with their comments.
It's quite sad to think that this young pilot may be blackballed or otherwise inconvenienced because of the actions of some extremely bitter and malicious individuals who have escalated conflict throughout the discussion.
In my humble opinion, this thread should be deleted before further damage is done.
rfcPilot, you share some blame here too. In the future, try to avoid lowering yourself to the level(s) of some of the contributors in this thread. Be part of the solution, not the problem.
Cheers

I was not going to say anything Twotter but I also got a hate PM from CID.
It is not the first of course so I just deleted it.
Must be our friend from Winnipeg who has been around forever being viscious on other forums.
I also now wonder if rfcPilot and CID and STC and Air Play are one and the same.
Just to put things into their true light I asked rfcPilot to post his registration......asking the owner and exposing are two different things.

Ladies, Gentlemen (and of course Cat 
)
I was summoned here. It would seem that this has degenerated into a furball. So I will take time out from doing my job to visit with you.
Point One:
Play Nice.

)I was summoned here. It would seem that this has degenerated into a furball. So I will take time out from doing my job to visit with you.
Point One:
- RFCPilot- Doctors, lawyers etc rarely give free curbside consults. AME's frequently do, and they are good ones at that. It may well be easier to buy your local AME a coffee (Hell, spring for lunch!)and ask your questions. For what it's worth, the engineers I've run into in my time have very little time for un-necessary work repairs etc, they simply do what is required. You had a response early in the day to your questions that was fairly on the money. Spend the buck on a coffee.
- For the conspiracy theorists- No, RFCPilot is not CID or any of the other suspects.
- Cat Twotter, play nice next time!

JC my reference to " Air Play " and " STC " was from other forums aside from Avcanada.....
...I'm still fairly sure it is the same person....
...does CID post from a Winnipeg computer ?
...naw, you don't have to answer that JC.
As a moderator on Avcanada can you confirm that Avcanada guarantees the anonymity of posters....what exactly are the legal ramifications of naming a poster who posts under an assumed name?

Cat Driver,
There you go. You're much more interested in exposing people's identities for the purpose of discrediting them and causing them personal harm than useful constructive discussion.
For the record (again). I'm not who you accuse me of being. Now please try to stay focussed on the discussion and most of all, act your (alleged) age.

Wow this site is great. Here's another example of one of the clan showing what a wank job he is. He might as well write.
"hey all my buddies are going to back me up and we are going to get you" It should be obvious how he embarasses himself.
CKS,
In the immortal words of Jed Clampett, "Don't 'hep me boy".
twotter thrives on controversy and some twisted fantasy about me being multiple AvCanada personalities. You're just feeding the fire.
Try to avoid sinking to his level and avoid the personal attacks. With the "moderating" (and I use that term loosely) that we "enjoy", you're just not going to gain any ground against this elite group.
They can stalk you and launch personal attacks all day with little or no reprecussions. If you retaliate, they call foul and try to unmask you in an attempt to not only discredit your online entitity, but your personal life as well.
I really have to ask myself if its all worth it sometimes. But I won't let these guys bully me even if I have zero support from the moderators.
The sad thing is there are so many legitimate interesting aspects to this industry that we can be discussing but I spend more time addressing personal attacks, insults, lies and conspiracy theories from these guys.

aircraft maintenance questions
rfcpilot,
As one of the nasty ol' AME scum trying to deprive the private controlstick actuators of their hard earned dollars I would like to say a few words on your subject . As an AME I find that dealing with a customer with absolutely no mechanical knowledge of their aircraft can be very difficult
when trying to pass on information about the work being done or required
because, as you seem to indicate a complete distrust of your maintenance facility and AME's , what you feel is a uneccessary part change or procedure may be viewed differently by your AME who may be looking at the work as a preventative measure.{THIS MAY NOT BE THE CASE WITH EVERYONE!! as there are crooks in all walks of life... even the computer trade. } for example... Your vacum filter, while it may not be due for a change on time will you be able to tell what constitutes a dirty filter?
What will your reaction be if your system packs up because of it? Will you blame yourself or the AME for not changing the filter? Think about it
I think that you should ask questions of your AME if you are uncertain..as the old saying goes..there are no stupid questions.. just stupid mistakes
