Country:  | Yessir. And for those who might be in my sights, apologies in advance. If I cross the line, please PM me. I can throttle back when necessary. I honestly don't want to chase anyone away from this forum. Well may except Lunatic. He is his an exception.

I hope that was not the reason he left. | That's one of the reasons that I.....errrmmmm.....eeeehhh....enjoy this forum as much as I do, to have fun with someone or that you're getting the flak yourself. You'll have to be able to take as much as you can give and have a VERY thick skin, otherwise you won't last a week here I think... 
I hope to see some of the old hands back on the forum one day..

| I'm pretty sure PlanD will return. Now he just needs to concentrate on his studies so he can become a good aerodynamicist, which I understand is what he's trying to become.
Great guy, hope he'll be back soon.
