Or if you do..., in the words of Winston Churchill, "never, never, never quit"... the results might be ghastly... (shudder)

You must mean old "Brown Sugar" there Goldmamber... I've seen him work his magic at the Legion in Blue Liver... very smooth... HV P.S. And a great guy on top of everything...

Well said. Sometimes reading those Nabob's posts is like finding that sore spot in your tooth with a toothpick... it hurts, but you keep returning to the scene to confirm that. Finally you just can't ignore it any longer... and you disregard your Mom's advice. HV

I bet if you belonged to a union Sisyphus, you'd claim that rolling that rock was someone else's job... and if that didn't work you'd take a year off with a "back problem"... and if that didn't work perhaps a claim of substance abuse? Fearmongering is something that really annoys me: It's ok...

What about the former base manager from a Vancouver Island company who bombed a heli-pad at a fishing lodge with a bambi bucket dipped in the big "swimming pools" outside of town? With a bunch of VIP's standing there thinking their ride had arrived... now that's getting in the shite!! And it was...

As to the original topic that the 407 is a superior machine to an Astar... there are many arguments in favour of either that have already been listed here. Some have clearly listed their reasons for choosing either... such as 407D's irrefutable argument that the 407 is the one for what they're...

What does it for me is the ever-changing dynamic. I guess way back people stayed at the same company for a long time but over the 10+ years that I've been doing this it has changed. You are a dues-paying member of a fraternity of individuals who want nothing more than to see "what's over the...

Hey duf!!! Don't do it man! Hang in there...keep "networking" and figuring out what you want to do... just avoid the arguing especially if it doesn't mean anything to you... This site is a great place to meet people who can help you later... HV

What he said... HV

Hey arctic_front... I have given this some thought... and engineers being engineers I think I know how they did it... Take a time-exed turbine wheel... encase it in something much softer and subject to dissolution in an acid that won't have much effect on the wheel itself... call this material...

I waited and waited for someone to enlighten me (no facetiousness intended) and finally looked it up myself. I'm now somewhat of an expert (cough...). Here is a link to a one-paragrapher that describes the process in a nutshell... but there's lots of stuff on the web about this... technology...

I can see that you're bent on holding your position and since I don't know your whole story that's fair enough. However, I don't think my statements were circular or rhetorical, but were meant to emphasize the importance of attitude... something that in an earlier post you had listed behind...

Bleedvalve, I really don't know where you are coming from in including me in any group of people who are involved in "blackballing" others for a difference of opinion. I have my own opinions on everything and have fought very hard through multiple companies for the free expression of opinion...

Come on now leadingedge... there were many, many, many laws that guaranteed rights for Canadians prior to 1982... so these "concepts" are not new. The Bill of Rights of 1960, for example, guaranteed basic rights and freedoms. However, the Charter of Rights and Freedoms is part of the...

This is something I've been wondering about for awhile. Normally I research stuff online or at the library, but in the spirit of Magseal's "CA Aviation Challenge", I've decided to see what the guys and girls on this forum know about this: I know (or at least I've always understood) that the...
