Canards in turbulence

[Mike Switzer]

I'm guessing someone noticed you have a need to post on every subject and that's not what that forum is all about. It's about those who ask of those who know without all the chatter and theories on every subject. There are other canard forums for that and mostly frequented by the wannabees and forever builders. The experts mostly ignore them. Sorry, it just gets annoying to some of us looking for a real exchange of information less all the unsolicited opinions from forum junkies.

Say what??? I have never posted on that forum, as I was unable to get access. As to posting on every subject, I don't know what generated that comment as I generally keep to the homebuiding & maintenance sections here.

Hal,
Do you call this "valuable".....?

Who should actually make that decision?

Never mind Tom, you're on your own.

Some times the simple questions expose attitudes. simply remember this is the internet, if it means some thing to you use it as you wish, if it doesn't, ignore it.
Being tolerant of others is a sign of maturity.

Yeah right Tom, you go build a canard in tube and fabric and have the local Caterpillar grease monkey do your ignition system and I'll feel really mature watching you do it without comment -right.
This is sad Hal - I don't care how you can spin it.

I'm an A&P-IA I'll not build any thing until I'm sure of what I am doing. I don't know where the hostility comes from, but it really doesn't belong here. This is every bodies web page and all information I can get here the better I am. I started this thread to gain information.
I know that you own and fly a EZ but what have you really contributed to the thread? First you tell me to go to a web page that is not attended enough to get a password approved, then you criticize others for not contributing any thing useful.

Evidently the fact that I would rather weld tube than smear epoxy makes me an Idiot.

Well, the state of Illinois says I have a Professional Engineer license, I think I am qualified to design a structure.

Not always. I know some really immature people who simply lack spines so they try to paint themselves as tolerant. However, I will agree that I have no problem with you so I'll assume in your case that it's a sign of maturity and intellect.

Riki - One tractor mechanic I use has rebuilt the mags for many experimental aircraft. He has been servicing these mags for 50 or 60 years and they work just fine when he is done with them. The mags on an aircraft engine are the same ones that were used on most tractors in the 30s, 40s, & 50s.
