This thread is heightist. The only issue with height I have ever seen (depends on the day for me) is trying to open a door on the ramp.

I think he may have been the Captain on a flight years ago I was on. I don't understand how he could see over the dash while reaching the rudder pedals.

In summation, arguing with and calling the guy agreeing with you a "mf" kills your credibility as a master debater.

No, no, no! You're doing it right without a doubt! I may have misread your post by reading too fast if I came across wrong. I thought we were all having fun here but if I scuffed your shoe, my sincere apologies sir! I hope we fly together one day so we can see who passes out or simply bursts open from excessive off-duty beer consumption first!

Oh, and obviously -not- needless to say, "mf" was used in the fun way, not the "let's fight" way! Like I said, this seems like one of the few comedic threads here that exist soley for people to throw their 2 goofy cents in if they want! A good break from the anger and negativity that's abundant in this forum...

Heh, what if "mf" went for "master flier" there instead of the classic profane remark? Of course it did NOT but still lol! You sir would have pisd away a perfectly good compliment!

Hey, maybe I just coined a new euphemism there...XD be on the lookout for getting called a "master flier"! Now you know what that -really- means!
