Well, now MH370 has a permanent ban of its own. I predict an in-forum structural thread-lock within eighteen days.
Well, it only took eight days...

Ahh, ironing and drama.

If they could only handle maturity and humour (and aviation) too.

Please, stop torturing the poor moderators. Remember the new "three and you are out" rule.

I will never be as good at torturing moderators as a number of other (mostly banned) forumites that I respect...

Nevertheless, I'm trying to do my part.

OMG... I was just doing some searching on "TBM-900 cabin pressure" and found this article by obscure aviation writer Les Abend: http://www.cnn.com/2014/09/06/opinio...ash/index.html
Made my day Eric!

You know, it's not really that personal against the mod...although he certainly stepped in it big time, there was a whole bunch of other folks that piled in on how there was no reason for them to know about Len Morgan and Gordon Baxter.

Of course, they are indeed right...the reason I know about Len Morgan is that I am an old aviation buff and have read his articles...being the children and photographers that they are, they would lack the experience.

It is more than a little suspicious that the entire forum feigns ignorance of the fact that "Les Abend writes" is an anagram of "wet red lesbians"

Yes, but "told the full story"is itself an anagram of "fed holly lust tort" so you have to be careful. :?

Wow...

The level of thought and discussion here is so incredibly starkly contrasted to that there.

Amazing.

Is 3WE an attempt at reflection symmetry?

I attempt many things.

My success varies.

Mostly, I attempt to humour Not_Karl whom I think is related to Dr. Dick_Karl.

Is that reflection symmetry or is it something like asking if there's a hidden meaning in that Les Abend writes a column that originally was written by Len Morgan?

Uhmm... No, doesn't ring a bell. Does he write for an obscure magazine or something?

What's the difference? They are both equally obscure.

Lots of deleted text, but the meaning is not changed:
... Dr. Dick_Karl...Uhmm... No, doesn't ring a bell....

...Les Abend...Len Morgan...are both equally obscure.
Are you Brian?

Or just a young, liverly-loving photographer unfamiliar with aviation magazines from the slightly lesser nation located just North of Texas?

Fixed.

(If I were a photographer I would stick to "Photography forums where Len Morgan and Gordon Baxter are dismissed as obscure" ;) ).

Also I think your occasional sarcasm is not well understood on that forum.

1. Fixed.

2. Indeed.

3. References to a movie about poor misguided children on a forum full of poor misguided children...

...oh the ironing!

Great 1980's song though.

I'll have to wait for the final report...according to eyewitness reports (from me), they banked more than 30 degrees to the right at less than 300 ft AGL.

However, eyewitness reports are often wrong.
I'm pretty sure there are eyewitnesses who saw fire coming out of that 748-8F and heard its engines failing.

I think both manufacturers make big aluminum cylinders.
elaw took the words out of my fingers:
Aren't the cylinders sometimes made of cheap composites? :mrgreen:
