He's certainly an aviation enthusiast, and if he decides to pursue aviation as a career I'm confident his outlook and opinion will change.
DeadHead, you are always the voice of reason and it gets boring.

It is not the content nor ideas that vagabond et al. are objecting to, it is his that the guy is lying or misleading about his station, and responds to any criticism with weird ad hominem attacks and generally just being an immature jerk who does not add to the conversation. Their tolerance is also shown in that vagabond gave him one last chance to improve and contribute rather than ban him outright, which is more than I would have done.
We all share the same airspace and I appreciate the tolerance you pros show for the occasional GA guys or trainees here. Varied perspectives are valuable.
