    in reply to: Reserve repack #12572

    Jerome did a Great job, of repacking my Quantum 550 !!

    He took his time , and explained each step, and why it’s important . I will feel good about using it ; if needed !! 1990, i tossed a reserve at Torry ; it didn’t open , and i had to pull it back in, and re-deploy it. Second time around, it opened, 10-ft before i smashed into the cliff, and i got a broken toe ; that was when i Had an actual real live toe !! HA !!!

    Point made!

    Actually i believe you missed the point ; i have options, and also have the ability to adapt , fast and easy. Alan I have no interest in fighting with you ; I also enjoy flying enough that it would be difficult for anyone to chase me away, because I have the cognitive resources and willingness, to adhere to social protocol.

    “I’ve wondered why we allow any non-members to post in the forums, other than the “Marketplace” and “Rides” areas?  This is a club forum, paid for by club member dues.  There is probably value to CSS members from external posts on gear and rides, but the other forum areas?  Why?”

     

    Haven’t bin a member for a few years ; but i never had a problem with supporting your club by paying the club day-use fees, every time i ever flew there since . If that is the way you feel ; then i will bail out, with no regret.

    Lake Elsinore , and Horse canyon in SD ; both are just a bit further drive down the road.

    OK — i get where your coming from ; how about a different

    type compromise then :

    A 4-strike rule, with another one month ban Added, to  each consecutive

    offence ; first time it’s a month ban, second time it’s two months, third- three, and

    then it’s a permanent ban ?

    I get in bad-moods , at times ; just trying to cover myself, because i’m a Slow learner .  :(

    I’m not sure, that banning Mitch, or anyone, permanently, is

    a good thing ; everybody has Bad moments , (it’s human nature) !!

    Also :

    Mitch is a Really Good source of information ; he’s just

    a bit colorful with his speech, at times , (as Most of us are) .

    I’m for banning a guy, (or anyone) for no more than a month at a time ; eventually

    anyone would catch on, and possibly adjust their behavior to comply

    to the status quo  ?
