Gotta throw the "general" and afellowaviator in there for entertainmant value! Can we have a 'bizarro' brain trust and include the likes of TopGun-Mav and the like?
Those two are the definitive experts over on the Training board, and they always contribute useful and insightful information that's always fun to read.
I suppose a scholar can be a teacher or a student.
In the sense of a scholar being a pupil or student I'd nominate UWOChris.
His questions are well thought out and most importantly he researches his questions before he asks them, resorting to the board only when he gets hung up on a certain point.
Mar, You are insightful again, a Scholar can be both a student and a teacher. A good teacher (IMHO) should always, at the same time, be a student. Always ready to learn, and maybe hear an opposing view, Able to consider a view point that they do not currently have.

My thanks to Jedi for an honorable mention to include me in this distinguished group. Others may disagree with you.
I also agree with the poster that said there are many who have brought their knowledge and assistance to the board. My thanks to them for the chance to read the informative posts and constructive view points. In Aviation, like medicine and the Law, it is only a practice because it is ever changing and always dynamic.
I originally avoided mentioning anyone because I was afraid that I'd leave someone out. That still stands, but since someone else mentioned MAR, I'd like to throw in my affirmative vote. MAR is one honest liberal, a man for who I have a great deal of respect. Besides, his airplane is bigger than mine.
enigma,
mar, sorry about the liberal tag, I just can't resist
