I have (un)fortunately been off the computer&I-net for about 3 mos. now and I'm just now trying to get caught up on my e-mails and general I-net stuff.So now I'm looking @ what Caaviation has been up to,and I see that everything is running smoothly,as there is still talk of union/assoc.,lost "brothers",and a healthy dose of backstabbing,slurs,heroics,etc.etc.
At one time,the only way we had interaction with each other was either when we met on a job together,or in a bar with 1/2 doz.other co.s,and if any B.S. was to be flung it was dealt with on a very base level. Some of the best personal friendships were forged in both situations.
I miss "the good old days".
 
base or not, at least then you would have known who you were dealing with.
 
one of the hazards of cyberspace and anonymous forums

it won't change, even forums about barbequeing and gardening aren't immune to disagreements. The main difference here is the passion is greater, and choices not only affect your livelyhood, but also your life. Not to mention ego's are much bigger here than anywhere else. You're taught all thru your training careers that the final decision is yours...now try and get someone to change that way of thinking and listen to some anonymous character on the other end of an ethernet cable.
 
CEP, nice to see you back again, luckily you missed some very unpleasant posts here a while ago. They have since been deleted.
Some of us are trying to make this place as fun, pleasant and comfortable as a bar in the far north.
One of the participants keeps trying to drag this website down to his own personal low level.
Despite warnings, he just changes his name, but not his behaviour. He's easy to spot. Ignore him.

I may well have enjoyed a cold beverage with you in the past, if not, I look forward to buying you and Shaggy a beer someday.......I can just imagine the scene.......
 
well mr. monkey, i'd be honoured to let you buy me a beer some day 😀 !
 
me too, but i won't stop at one. bring your credit CM....i'm thirsty 😀
 
Welcome back CEP. Yes this forum has lost its professional edge in some respects, but as Mr. Monkey says, don't play to the lowest common denominator. I myself slipped a little and got in a wee banter, slinging mud and such, and, as Mr. Monkey, would much prefer to see this forum as it used to be.

Party on.

ps If there is to be any "buying of beer" going on I would love to be involved.
 
Maggie, Shaggy, and CEPPY
The first round's on Gold Member.......after that we'll charge it all to my personalised credit card.
 
as long as you can prove to the waitress that you have opposable toes, i'm sure she'll accept if you tip 'er big!
 
GoldMember, speaking of lowest denominators i haven't seen your arch enemy Doctor Evil & his sidekick Mini Me for quite some time.

Have You banished them forever?

:elvis:
 
I'm finally back from Holland and my summer went very well.

Anyone know what I need to do to post a picture or two?

You have to have the pictures hosted on a website. Once that is done, you click the "image" button above the "reply" box, another window pops up where you enter the URL of the website where your picture is, then click the "OK" and it should be in your reply. You can write above or below the entry.
The following is a free website that you can use to host the pictures - it explains how to do it:

Photobucket

What were you doing in Holland?
 
Nomex :

Thanks for the link, later today I shall see if I can click my way through the process.

I was in Holland most of the summer doing type rating training on a PBY and flying as an air display pilot in airshows.
