1. This was my 1st tour after a 3 month break
Edit: Additional reasons for many bails and few landings.
Honestly, I don’t care about how you fly or choose to play the game. That part of my post was calling attention to another error you made (ball vs. bale/bail) in what I thought was a humorous way. I fully agree with INK, that stats don’t really tell the tale. In retrospect it was a misguided comment and I probably should have kept the serious tone.
The intent of my post is in the SECOND paragraph, Squati. This is where I point out your errors and follow up on your ignorant and prejudiced comments. I do understand why you would fail to respond to this essential part of my post.
Here is my point: Your comments were not only inaccurate but also WAY out of line. One thing I’ve learned about AH (and life in general) is that larger squads tend to have some good folks in them and some bad folks in them. It is not unlike any other large group of individuals. Look at any professional sports team, for example. You can probably point out a couple of really moronic clowns and a couple of really stand-up quality guys. Just because they play for the same team, doesn’t define them all as individuals.
This level of thinking could be way over your head, especially given the biased and ignorant comments you have made thus far. But, even though this might be wasted on you, it may not be on others who read it. So, I have taken the time to point out your mistakes, from grammatical, to factual, to logical and philosophical. You made yourself a pretty big target, and if you can’t recognize why this is or fess up to it, it is simply your loss.
As one of the AH trainers told me, though, when you fly into someone’s guns, you really should try to “get skinny”.
p.s. The vICTA Boelcke post is funny. My vote for post of the week, too. See the subtle difference, Squati?
