You and I should have flown together.

Free speech is important even for the conspiracy theory posts here.

That being said I'm embarrassed if some of these are written by airline pilots as I'm sure they are. Although provides strong evidence we should never ever have a single pilot flight deck.

I'll wager you a hun that MANY of them are not pilots.

For the last few years, anytime a hot button POL issue popped up on any forum or website that I frequent, FNGs have shown up and plastered the site with long-winded bits extolling the virtues and truths of whatever it is they believe in. Or want you to believe.

Post count? 3. Post length? 300 words.

The web is full of chicanery.

Yeah this site is filled with characters. If only some of them could share the flight deck with some of aviators on here

Personally I’m for choice... but whatever people decide to do (shot/no shot) may have a direct impact on their QoL... travel, schools, etc. I’ve taken Pfizer and personally accepted the risk after reading everything available... first time in my life I’ve had a choice on immunizations. My parents decided when I was a minor and the AF decided most of my adult life.

WTF are you talking about, not-a-United-pilot guy? Last I checked, this is Airline Pilot Central and you are poking your nose into the United tent. Since you're not a UA pilot, your opinions carry less heft with me. Much less. And the only people who refer to themselves as aviators are guys who land on boats. Near as I can tell, you're neither an airline pilot nor an aviator. Just a BS artist.

Stick around and keep posting. The hole around you keeps getting deeper. It's entertaining watching you dig.

I’m giving you a compliment. If only some of the new guys had a chance to fly with you, they’d be much better because of it. You’re probably not as bad in real life once someone gets to know you.

Your last post directed at me had my head in a toilet. Forgive me if I don't believe you.

Apologies Mako, just visiting your tent for a second. I heard all the commotion from outside. Sometimes you read a silly thing on the Internet and you think: Wow, crazy how that guy legitimately thinks the Earth is flat - thankfully nobody else does or we'd be in trouble. But then there's a "Hell yeah," and then a "Fight the power, brother!" It would be one thing on ConspiraciesRUs.com, but it astounds me that people who presumably believe in the physics behind an aircraft flying simultaneously believe with absolute conviction that there is an Illuminati-led effort to inject nanochips via a global false flag operation requiring millions of conspirators. Among other things. What's more, I've flown with people like this. It's sadly not as rare as one might expect. If you are one of these people, please, please, just keep it to yourself. Everyone will be a lot happier for it after 4 days.

When a small vocal minority through insidious misinformation campaigning, organized and not, begins to convince otherwise rational individuals such as my high-risk parents that vaccines are dangerous, I take issue.

As an aside, the more exclamation marks somebody uses, the less credibility the message usually carries.

I believe the more accurate statement is "over half a million people were Covid-positive when they died."
