XXX Posted August 21, 2017 Report Posted August 21, 2017 I'm outta here, admin considers my post abusive. I've enjoyed my time here. See you all at Mooney Summit.

Hank Posted August 21, 2017 Report Posted August 21, 2017 I'll buy you a beer Friday night in Panama, if I can figure out who you are in person . . .
Andy95W Posted August 22, 2017 Report Posted August 22, 2017 Also sorry to see you go! Now I'm wondering which post?
Guest Posted August 22, 2017 Report Posted August 22, 2017 He can't reply, he's left the forum! Clarence

Best I can figure, it was tied to the thread about the burning crash on the highway divider, that's where his last several posts were. What'd he write? No idea, I was at work all day, but read up on it at lunch.
XXX Posted August 22, 2017 Author Report Posted August 22, 2017 Here's the thread that pissed him off... Just thought you might want to know. I'll miss you guys too. Hank, I'll find you at the Summit for that beer. Kevin knows me. I'll be wearing the MAGA t shirt.
Andy95W Posted August 22, 2017 Report Posted August 22, 2017 I remember now. You called out those no-good left wing mud daubers in the fuel tank vent thread. If I was going to the Summit I'd look you up to have a beer. And I wouldn't care who you voted for or what your t-shirt said! 1

Tommy Posted August 23, 2017 Report Posted August 23, 2017 You should've known by now that it's his site, he is entitled to make the rules - just or unjust. But it's internet, for goodness sake, no one knows you personally and vice versa. It's easy to dish out attacks and to receive some. So what?! But, one thing for certain, you stand to loose more if you leave, @Chupacabra ps. And it has nothing to do with right vs left wing, @Andy95W blaming on all the world's problems on the ideology you don't subscribe to on a non-political forum is a sure way to get a penalty point. Lol.

gsxrpilot Posted August 23, 2017 Report Posted August 23, 2017 The tag on the title was, I'm sure, a farewell shot, but still in poor taste. Craig does a great job providing, maintaining and policing our little community there. So... back to airplanes. I'm flying to OKC for business tomorrow. I'm in Austin. Our regional VP lives out west of Austin and has asked me if he can ride along instead of flying Southwest. He's never been in a Mooney. It will be 100 degrees on the ramp when I pick him up. We'll see how it goes. He's been sworn to secrecy as I don't want Legal to know I use the plane occasionally. 4
peevee Posted August 23, 2017 Report Posted August 23, 2017 Why would anyone go to okc voluntarily? Yuck. 1 1

They do that here in nowhere, Alabama too. Drives me crazy! That, and the 3-5 second pause at Stop signs . . . . Edited August 23, 2017 by Hank 1

Well, speaking of sore subjects, how do we change this corporate mentality where legal tells folks how they travel? I hope your VP sees the benefit and has some leverage in changing the policy! 2

I hope your VP sees the benefit and has some leverage in changing the policy! I actually out rank this VP myself but in a publicly traded company, no one out ranks Legal. We don't actually have a policy about private air travel. But I don't want anyone in Legal to ask why or if we should. 1

mooniac58 Posted August 23, 2017 Report Posted August 23, 2017 I simply warned a couple users to stop talking politics in the forums...and politely. No bans, etc. Just deleted the posts that did not belong and warned those that I deleted. If that is too much for you then I guess farewell and safe flying. 9 1

Many of the world's problems are demonstrably caused by putting lawyers in charge of what we do and how we do it.
