Regarding The Flight Info Scholars

[cezzna]

Just wondering how many of you "scholars" cut your teeth on the Pro Pilot BBS?

That's where all of this began for me. I don't think he posts here but if he did I'd have to nominate Doc. He's a walking aviation legal encyclopedia.

Doc's FAR forum is a great place to go to exchange aviation-related info.

Flinfo is more like a high school locker room.

I'm apparently not a Flight Info "scholar" , but I was a member of the original Pro Pilot board.

It's the avatar, Chperplt. Looking at it makes me want to reach for my motion discomfort bag.

I know his legal forum is still second to none, but he used to have the best baord on the net. All before this place was around.

Meh, that was for noobs with that new fangled web thingy. Real scholars started out on the AVSIG on Compuserve via a 300 baud Hayes Smartmodem and their TRS-80 Model 1

Doc's FAR forum is one of the best I've found.

My wife still rues the day I started "playing" with her Tandy 1000HX and bought that 300 bd Hayes modem for it. Remember GEnie?

He used to have another board besides the FAR one, that was heavily used 4-6 years ago. After he took his down, this one took off.

His was an older text based board. I think thats where I first read Jimbo.
