Couldn't be 'our' Voss if we're going by alledged history. First, that Voss would have to come across as some type of pioneer super genius. After establishing that, he'd start making claims of an evolutionary product that can be had for $$. He'd show some awesome models (done on computer) to WOW the unsuspecting 'victims.' He'd set up multiple personalities. One would be to 'interview' the 'Inventor' so the 'interview' ends up on an unsuspecting website (maybe even a magazine). Other 'personalities' would be around to spread the word of how great this "Voss" inventor is.
Of coarse in the end, no one would actually have and concrete $ figures of how much they actually were 'duped' out of. Never mind that everyone seems to be pointing to the same 'interviews' or 'personal stories' as actual proof of what actually happened. Notice not a single lawsuit is ever filed. Not even at Small Claims Court......
That Voss in that F16 forum doesn't sound like an expert....for now.

The above is alledged only. As to the actual past incident, did Voss actually accept contributions under false pretenses? Looks like he did by his actions, but truth be told, I don't see actual evidence, only accusations by those that actually haven't 'invested' money. I'd like to see some actual figures by those involved directly, not heresay evidence.
Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth -- more than ruin -- more even than death.... Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. ... Bertrand Russell

I work for a company that manufactures fuel metering products for this aircraft. I am attempting to locate information relating to maintenance intervals of the engine (hot section, time between overhaul) along with average operating hours per month or annually.

Can you help or provide direction as to where I might locate this type of information.

Thank you

From what ive been told most of the **** posted here is aload of rubbish about Voss/meta. And why is it brining hornets into it?


Told by who? Voss?  His buddies?

Voss did all this stuff, I was there.


 

Nope, not justified at all, but what did HE do? no one has any proof, its just "well this guy said voss did this" or "oh i heard about this guy getting scammed by another guy called voss" bah bah bah, theres no proof, no nothing.

I'm an eye witness to at least some of the accusations.  That's proof enough for me ;)

If it really did happen, why didnt you lot of whining babies get the police or whatever into it?

I wasn't personally ripped off.  I have no cause to go to the police.  But Voss has lost ALL honor.  You weren't around so you can;t know.  You probably figure you're stepping up and helping a buddy.  That's honorable, but he doesn't deserve it.

From what ive heard from "our side" is that he was part of a group of people, he didnt take any money from it, he infact lost money/time from it. But again, this is more rumour, no prove and i really cant care about something that supposed to have happend like 5 years ago.

You SHOULD care.  If you defend him, then it's YOUR honor and reputation on the line.  Voss never even apologized for all the crap he spewed.

Rich I think you miss the point. Read Pagan's post about conditions for reopening it. Specifically Paul addressing false claims he has made about his military service (being a F-16 pilot with kills in the Gulf).

Happy?  Hell no...pissed off that Paul lied about this. I believed him when he told me he flew F-16s.

I can't for the life of me understand why a guy that made the statement, "I dedicate my life to my God, my family, etc..." would LIE about his accomplishments. And then turn around and ignore the problem. Where did I get that statement? Go to the TAS BBS and do a "userpeek" at Paul Hinds.

And now Rich, you're upset with guys like me who challenged Paul's veracity? Why? I didn't give him brain cancer, I've claimed he has fabricated some outlandish fairey tales.

Mike made a business decision to close the BBS. I agree completely with that decision. I made a combustible retort on there Sunday night in response to Mike Barr saying in effect, [paraphrasing now] "we should show Paul more respect because of Paul's combat service."

How can I be more clear? I claim that Paul D. Hinds of Fayettville AR, NEVER attended the USAFA, flew F-16s, nor flew combat in F-16s and shotdown 2 Iraqis. IMO Paul's claims are an INSULT to real life veterans.

I make no claims against Paul's business partner Michael P. Hobuss of Austin TX. I believe Mike to be an honorable man. Mike has officially stated he has NO COMMENT about my challenge or Paul's service record.

Robey.  I think you picked the worst moment to come up
with this.  The man is dying for crissake!  Do you think
he or his family cares about what you think at this moment?
Do you think he or his family would come up and answer
anything?  If I were on my death bed and somebody comes
asking about any claims ... I guess my last gesture in
life would be to raise my middle finger regardless of how
noble or correct your claims are.

I dunno, the whole TAS thing is pretty weird.

Obviously a response from a person who's never done anything in his life
to be proud of.

Sorry, pal .. but wannabe's, imposters, pretenders .. they _are_ scum of
the earth, climbing to some height on the achievements (and blood and
bodies) of others that they envy.

Do you have _any_ accomplishment you consider worthy?  If so .. how
would you feel if someone else claimed that same accomplishment .. and
was a fraud?  BFD?  Not likely.

I hope he gets better too .. but if his claims to USAF, Academy, F16
pilot, air combat, etc. are bogus .. he's just as worthless a wannabe as
any of the others.  His programming may be great, he may have all the
friends in the world in the aviation and flight sim areas .. but he'll
have no friends in the ranks of the veterans.

I await his response to the charges against him with great interest.  I
haven't joined the thread to date because I feel he has _not_ been able
to respoond (due to health).  But when he _does_ start communicating
again .. his response to the charges had better be one of the first
things out of his keyboard.  Or I'll consider him guilty by "failure to
appear."

I don't go around wearing Vietnam hats or jackets or patches, don't make
the parades, don't join the clubs and associations .. but I damn sure
get pissed when someone pretends to be SF or MACV(SOG) or Recon or
whatever. And I can totally sympathise with real-world fighter pilots
who've "seen the elephant" as they say.

F***ing kangaroo court jesters! Have you *proved* Paul's claims beyond a reasonable doubt? Thought not.

From: wurger@cris.com (wurger@cris.com)
Subject: Re: TAS, Rich stop and consider...

Nos, his claims have been disproven beyond a reasonable doubt. As 'Paul Hinds' he claimed he attended the U.S.A.F. Academy.
When the yearbooks were checked for every year he said he was there, there was no mention of him...and I don't buy the 'changed his name from what it *really* was because of covert operation involvement' ..they selected him for some covert operation involving flying a F-16 while he was at the U.S.A.F. Academy? Before he ever attended flight school? There are numerous other claims which have been disproven, but I won't mention them for the 65th time or so in this newsgroup. What I will mention again is that for 3 months Robey tried to get some verification from Paul Hinds via email, and received no responses from Paul at all during this time. However, Paul responded to email sent by people not 'putting the heat on him' usually within a day or so of sending him a message.

The guy is a liar. Once again, I don't want him to die, and I can feel for his friends and family. And I am totally willing to drop the whole matter until 'Paul Hinds' can respond to Robey's questions. But I will not have some clueless person (yourself Nos...this is not
an attack on you - I am referring to the fact that Robey has spent
months researching 'Paul Hinds' claims, and you have not) post
responses that could possibly dilute the facts that Robey has
uncovered, thereby causing someone to think for an instant that
there is a viable excuse/reason for Paul Hinds failure to back up his claims.

Nos, I can understand why you are defending Paul Hinds, I myself
have a weak spot for the apparent 'underdog'. But in this matter, I have been convinced of/become aware of facts that most others
do not have knolwedge of.

So until the 'truth comes out' Nos, let's just agree to disagree. You
seem like a reasonably decent fellow (anyone who likes the Clubfoot Orchestra can't be all that bad...), sound cool to you?

Ok.  Please STOP making those lame count hyping posts.  It's as "fulfilling" as tissue paper stuffed in a bra.


 *The explicit and revealing pictures of pissed of GF's is more than welcome and are more expected at this point however.

 For the rest may I suggest using the moment to create a witful but biting, caustic  barb aimed at the Vosstitute and his sheep?

On any other message board, anyone who was caught 100% lying about military service was instantly banned for life.

Of course, one or more of the moderators of such forums was usually a veteran or currently serving.

I doubt anyone at HTC has ever served in the military, but it would be greatly appreciated by a veteran like myself if the same policy were followed here.

Being a veteran doesn't automatically make you an honest and honorable man deserving respect, but pretending to be a veteran for personal gain certainly makes you a dishonest bastard deserving no respect. Those with the Christian idea of forgiveness should still understand that while you may forgive someone in your heart, that doesn't excuse them from accountability and punishment for their actions... especially when they are a remorseless SOB. Jesus said forgive, not forgive and forget. On the other hand, if you feel like turning your other cheek, feel free to contact Metatron to find out what you can do to help him finish TAS.

I don't buy into mental illnesses either... to go to an extreme, anyone who would do what Hitler did obviously had some mental/emotional issues, but that doesn't excuse their actions.

Paul Hinds/Voss/Metatron has demonstrated that he will use any means available to impress his own delusions of grandeur on any one he can to satisfy his emotional (and perhaps monetary) needs. Allowing him to participate in any community enables him to continue.
