How Long On Flightinfo?

[Ty Webb]

FARdoc had a good sub-forum for FAR questions.

Yep, I had forgot about that one.

Oddly enough, I'm member number 23 out of 84,000 and change..

Where did you fnd that info?

 

[Blue Dude]

Well, that wayback archive was interesting. I can't believe it's been that long.

Hover your mouse over your (or anyone's) username in a post and look at the bottom of the screen.. the number is your "user number". You are 1212. The join dates go back to 2001, when they switched to this form, I think. A lot of us have been here longer, obviously.

Thanks for the tip . . . . unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work in Firefox.

I have the latest version of Firefox, seems to work just fine. It shows it in the bottom left after the address.

You know how you know you've been on Flightinfo for too long? You remember this:

Jimborealgoodpilot

That is all.

The trolls and flamebaiters on FI today couldn't hold a candle to that guy!

 

[PeanuckleCRJ]

I got involved at airliners.net first...back when there were actually airline pilots over there before all the management wannabes ran most of them off. Came to Flightinfo a few times and I think even registered a name but couldn't remember it and never posted. Finally registered and started posting in 2004.

Click on your user name and it gives you a page that shows your join date. 3-5-2004 for me, #13788. I feel so "Junior".

Jimborealgoodpilot!!
Talk about a blast from the past. Didn't he always end his rantings with "props are for boats" or something like that?

What about TIS. He still around?

Doc's FAR forum was a great resource.

Been lurking/checking in since '97 maybe '98.

 

[Ty Webb]

New merger rumor!

Ty your number is 1212.

I wonder how I'll fare when we merge with Airlinepilotcentral.com?

 

[NuGuy]

Heyas,

Been on and around since 1999.

None of the current trolls are 1/100 as funny as Jimbo. He was a pilot's troll...

#788 baby. although it shows I joined in 2001, I guess the changeover from the old forum reset everyone's join date?

 

[Reebo]

#849....12/01/01......And I still can't hold weekends off

How can you figure out your original start date or number? I can't figure it out....


Bye Bye--General Lee

Sometime around Spring 1999 while I was in college. The brass ringer chased back then has been heavily dossed with tarnish. If I could do it again, every once of energy would of gone to beer and irresponsibility before lifting a finger for this profession.

I have been on this forum since around 1997. I have changed names once, as has Blue Dude, and a few others. AvBug has been here a long time, Enigma too.

The board was originally started by a fellow Aviator named Mark, who is no longer with us. He was quite a guy. I still have some emails and PM's from him. He lost his life in a Lear 35 accident, and a friend stepped up to run this board and try to earn some revenue for the family that Mark had to leave behind. Perhaps someone with more recent knowledge can fill in the rest of the story.

Thank you Mark. You helped me and thousands of others learn about our industry, our profession, pass along techniques, find employment, and have some laughs along the way. God bless you.

Mark was a very decent guy.He owned a Commonwealth taildragger he kept in Middlefield,OH.He died in a mid air with a 172 near Akron.He was with a friend in an experimental.The line at the memorial service went all the way around the outside of that church !This is a link:

I've been here since 1998 or so,#399.That wayback machine was great ! Haven't seen JeffG since he was at PSA.I don't know if the old regulars like CFIITed,OzPilot,Poor727SO@night or IgnitionOverride still read this site or not.Bob Novak ran the ProPilot board.Then somebody threatened to sue him over some post on it and he shut it down.Remember The Flight Instructor's Homepage ? What a zoo !
