Pand used his name in vain.  :frown:

Sometimes promises must be broken for a higher calling... and I used Bob Ross's name with great honour and respect. :aok

A higher calling?  No.  Broken promises to a proud warbird are not taken lightly here.  Broken promises to the community are equally contemptible.  Let us look to Ross for guidance here -   

   

Obviously, breaking promises and using a wise and peaceful man to bolster your invalid point make you happy. 

Do you see those dark and stormy clouds?  Does it look familiar to you?

We share a common bond, Ink.   :headscratch: So why don't you understand?  Open your mind just a little more and you will see the light. :)



... or also said as "Every day is a good day when you fight in Aces High". :old:


I ask you...
 
  Did Bob compete in painting "duels"?  No!  
  Did Bob devalue other painters?  No!  
  Did Bob egosize other painters?  No!


A great analogy and example for all fighter pilots to learn from.  The joy of fighting not much different to me than the joy of painting.

Paint well, my friends... paint well indeed. :old:

Consider the beauty in the fight you paint. :old:

Just because I can:

Midway<SHawk, Del, Shuffler, Silat, AKAK, pervert, twinboom, mercy, bruv, Shane, skatsr, dragonh5, leviathan, lazerr, debrody, and so many more.

I did not add myself, not because I think he is better than me, I know I suck at this game.

Most I would agree with, although there are some exceptions on this list.  Many of these are in the three dozen or so better than me, for now.

Would Bob put down another artist?

Frederic Church < Bob Ross? No!

Not putting down, just comparing skills.  I am not Bob Ross, and fighting skill and prowess are important to me, but Bob does show the beauty imbedded in an activity that does not involve dueling.  Ergo, I don't like to duel.  Not saying painting and fighting are the same... just they just share some traits worthy of consideration, imho. :aok

I want to and am learning to fight better, as Bob wanted to and did learn to paint well for the pure joy of it and the self satisfaction of the activity... Similar to me. :joystick:

Well let see here....

Midway < Dolby < Tom


Midway you offer me no answers, your refusal to DA leaves me clueless on where to place you in regards to your skill...
Duel Dolby once for the sole reason of placing yourself and your skills. These are important matters  :old:

I doubt that, TomG.  You are pretty good.  I'd say in the top 20% of pilots.  Ask others, they'll tell you you are not in the bottom 10%. :salute
