Working on an experimental airplane? I noticed you said you're a member of the EAA. What are you building? c
http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3398207#post3398207 One of a kind of my own design. Using a turbocharged Mazda 20B 450 HP engine driving a 29.6" diameter 15 blade fan buried in the fuselage giving it the outward appearance of a jet. Though it is not a scale model/replica it will closely resemble the basic layout of an F-16, and be roughly half the size.
Very cool. It goes without saying 'be careful' - as you're well aware, we lost Steve Fossett, John Denver, and recently MU CEO, Steve Appleton, in experimental crafts. Send PM's as you progress, love to see stuff built from scratch. The Mazda rotary engine? Where is that procured? Can you just buy them as any other internal combustion motor c
The 13B two rotors yes, the three rotors are generally imported from Japan. They were never sold here in the states.
To be fair I should have qualified my defense as "he didn't use a racial epithet against another race". I'm not sure a black guy using an epithet against another black guy counts. They kind of get a pass in that regard.
Fosset died in a Citabria. Not exactly experiment. It is an incredibly robust aerobatic ship, I've flown them myself (Super Decathlon). They're very tough and have alot of power and pitch/roll authority and a large rudder. And he didn't die from what he was flying, he died from *where* he was flying. Spell Citabria backwards.
That's bullshit. A porch monkey is a very racial term used against any blacks. RCG has attacked Cain and several other black people as being basically white. In other words, they are not really black. They act and think white. We've had this debate on here many times. He and many other blacks believe that you can't really be black and conservative or even libertarian because it goes against what blacks are suppose to believe. Therefore if you do, then you are essentially a white person dressed in black man's skin. As far as attacking white people. What "exactly" do you want him to say? He has essentially accused all center right people on P&R as being racists and members of the klan or stormfront. I mean seriously. How far does this guy have to go? He is the biggest race baitor this website has ever seen. Honestly 377, you need to be honest. Look, I don't think RCG is a bad guy. In fact, we are going to be having dinner together in Nov. However, can we please call a spade a spade? You can defend him on any other issue. But on issues of race, he doesn't have a leg to stand on. And I'm a pretty fair guy on here. I wouldn't call him out on this simply because I disagree with his politics.
Well I'm certainly not in the habit of opposing you as I generally agree 100% with your assertions. I'm just noting that RCG hasn't called a white guy anything that falls into the category of epithet and repeating an axiom that black guys seem to get a pass calling each other racial epithets as they have assigned alternate meaning to them. "Porch-monkey" is not one that they use affectionately towards each other however. Again, I'm not calling you out or anything like that just sharing that my search of RCGs posts (prompted by his challenge to find anything overtly racist) didn't show that he had used any epithet towards white people and I was forced to conceed that.
Can you please give me an example? Just throw out some words that you would make you go, wow, I was wrong. That was pretty bad. Because in my view, being labeled a racist and a dues paying member of stormfront just because I believe in small limited government is insulting and just as bad as anything one could say to a black person. I hear MSNBC say all the time that using "code words" are examples of racism. Code words such as food stamps, states rights, and even get this...youths! Yes referring to people as "youths". So how is what he does not equally as bad. Screaming racist every time someone posts. Or calling all of us members of stormfront or the KKK. I mean come on 377. Please. I'm a reasonable person. Just how reasonable do you want me to be here?
