Okay, I'll play for a moment...
On another thread you commented very negatively on another ferry pilot promoting a business
My comment was not "very negative", it was that it was not a good look. I have no idea of the pilot's skill and experience, but I have a lot of experience with what someone who is seeking to hire a "ferry pilot" is looking for in skills. I stand by what I post, please quote it in fair context. I genuinely hope that self promoting ferry pilot seeking more training considers my comment, and takes a step back to consider the "look" which an experienced client might see. Non ideal, but not "very negative".
bad advice, that a brand new CPL should be able to ferry aircraft in winter
Do I understand that you're not in favour of new CPL's flying/ferrying in winter? (or, to be fair to you, am I perhaps mis understanding your concern?). I'm entirely comfortable with a new pilot flying in whatever season, providing they apply suitable allowances and cautions for the weather that they may anticipate in that season. I've never seen a pilot's license which was limited to particular seasons! Some of my best ferry flying has been on very cold winter days - I like those days you can see for hundreds of miles. Some of my more worrisome trips have been in the summer, where thunderstorms and unstable air masses were a concern. I hope that I have mis understood your concern, and you can be confident as I that newer pilots should review the weather, and make a good decision, not just blindly wait for the next season!
(reminds me of an anecdote: when I was a student pilot, I was a little lazy sometimes. While waiting (during the winter) to fly my solo cross country, I would ask my instructor with the weather was good enough. His standard answer was: "I don't think so", so I'd do circuits, hoping for the next opportunity. After a few rounds of my repeated laziness in this regard, another instructor instructor (who'd overheard) whispered to me: "Check the weather yourself..." I did, and it was entirely suitable. I took my weather notes to my instructor, and said that I thought the weather was suitable. he said: "Great, go fly your cross country then...". I learned to not be lazy from that! (and that wniter flying was fine, as long as you checked the weather)!
In any case, Rookiepilot, as you have chosen to comment my post, I hope you feel welcome to express your supportive perspective, and allow the group the benefit of the considerable flying experience which I credit you as having. Hopefully, no one is feeling personally attacked because of a post! Sure, comment, share your wisdom in a supportive way, the newbies will benefit! Be the pilot who the newbies read, and ask to fly with here, because they read your posts! That really does happen here!
My effort to steer toward the positive for the evening....
