spokes2112 Gold Class, High Route

flyon -

Roger that, no condescension meant at all. Just was comparing similar aircraft, the only 2 with similar characteristics (Twin, TSIO-520s etc..) . Back in Aspen I already noted what kind of bird this was. Guess I should of did more homework at the beginning and tried different aircraft before going with the 340 straight off. Could've went for the Lancair but there were 5 pilots already in that fine plane. Only wish Mother Nature was a little bit more unforgiving during the times I was flying. Kinda wishing for more IFR conditions, only had 2, the 1st leg and Telluride. It was a great route though, plenty of nice scenery to look out the window at. Thanks to all that set this up!

Anyhow, nice flying & congrats on your first race! :salute:

I don't get why your shorts are in a twist.

if anything you should be taking it as a compliment that you out-flew him.

Not very impressive this sarcasm... better if this had been handled in a PM.

First and foremost Rob, feel free to move this post (or delete it if you wish) as you see fit -this certainly isn't the place to have this discussion...

Yes, my shorts are kind of in a bunch, but not for my most recent post here -and btw, I didn't out-fly anyone here imo sir.
I never dreamed of out-flying anyone -I knew that going in. Spokes simply caught a bad break in my view.

In the meantime (as per your suggestion for pm's), I have sent Roman an apology for my post here in his thread last night.
I misunderstood his point, and I as a rookie here now stand ashamedly corrected.

I am also going to send you a pm soon. It will explain why my undies are "in a twist", as you put it...
It will have something to do with this post.

Good man. That takes moxie.

I sincerely doubt anyone here hasn't posted something where they misunderstood or would have taken it back.

I think we all here would say "it's a good thing" to see a good resolution.

PM to me not necessary (I'm just a peon here).

Glad you are here and participating.

Edit: There are mis-placed objects that one runs across from time to time in FSX (none on this Roundup that I am aware that stand out... maybe the fence too "high" @ Oxbow). E.g. Tower on the runway at a UK airport.... Glideslope shack on a taxiway @ Sitka. Sometimes I'll use an airport editor to correct (with google maps). Sometimes I just leave it... like a scratch on a nice piece of furniture (gives "character" : ).
