It's,good to think of making a post as if you're making a flight:

    First set up your glider. Then preflight your glider to check for errors and fix them.

Do the same when you post:

    First type your post and submit it. Then read it to check for errors and fix them.

The forum is set up to give you 4 hours to make changes to your post. After that, you can use the "Report" button to request specific spelling and grammar changes to your post. Any important changes to content will usually include a moderator's note explaining what was changed and why. We do that so people can count on what's been written. Posts should not mysteriously change or disappear when people are not looking!

One negative consequence of the 4 hour editing window is this possibility:

      A posts: "I hate hang gliding!"
      B posts: "You're a jerk!"

Then "A" changes "hate" to "love". The two posts now look like this:

      A posts: "I love hang gliding!"
      B posts: "You're a jerk!"

Now who looks like a jerk?

So before you respond to any post (especially during an argument), remember that the post may be changed many times within 4 hours of the original post time. So it's good to wait 4 hours before responding to ensure that nothing is sincerely or maliciously changed.

Judgment and and one Bad Ankle; Equals no Flying for Me.

Look; I know that I really am not what on the surface that I appear to be; That would Be a Poser. Here it is the case with Me. I have THE HOTTEST BADDEST Flying HG that has a King-Post. And Due to My having a Petty excuse. I have the petty excuse for not flying My Predator, because I was injured due to My last-Flight.So now I do not Fly. Ihave this smoking Hot out in the Garage, there sit's upon it's Rack, gathering Dust. Heck if I was a decent Poser. I would put My Predator upon the Rack that is on My Truck. Then I could drive around with My predator on top of My Truck. I would look the Part of an active Predator Pilot. Yes I would look the Part. But no I have not Flown in 12 Years. I am pathetic! So lasr week I did make a Half Hearted attempt to Fly a Condor. But I did not stride off into the Air, citing a gusty Left cross wind as the reason for My deciding not to Fly. Judgement, Good Judgement kept Me out of the Air. I hate Good Judgement! Well Today Ny Driver Pilot X twisted His Ankle, So today is out. This really does Suck!

ENVY, IT IS A Flying thing, Six San Diego Sites ib one Day.

Postby Chris McKeon » Sat Jun 25, 2022 1:37 pm

I seems Funny to ME. Well it is just a little odd regarding How little interest this Post has generated. I mean You Guys have These Flying sites down there seems to be so little interest in flying the sites down around San Diego, let alone any interest in what to me sounds like great fun. A challenge it would be to do. I want to one Day come down to San Diego and Fly From and to every Inland site that You have. What would That Be Six Sites in one Day?
