Forgive him, No!

In the words of Captain Blackadder, his foreskin should be nailed to the table with a staple gun and his testicals beaten wafer thin with a steak tenderiser  (such a shame Blackadder Goes Forth was only six episodes.)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Ebay CD seller #2's listing now says the auction ended because the "item is no longer for sale".

This is a quote from the Tornado sale on ebay:

What Happens If I Will This Auction?



'Once I have received payment from you I will personally buy this download from the appropriate internet company.  They in turn send me a link for the add on directly to my Inbox.  I will download this link on your behalf and then put the contents onto a CDR.  This will save you a great deal of time searching for these add ons, entering your personal bank details & waiting for these to download.'

What a load of ballcocks: This will save you a great deal of time searching for these add ons, entering your personal bank details & waiting for these to download.' Yeah of course it'll save me time, i'd much rather wait 3 or 4 days for a cd to come through the post  ::)

If your email adress is hidden only the mods and the admin can see it. They never give it or use it out. No one else onthe site can see it or get hold of it.
I assure you it was a total coincidence.

But since my last post to you Sparky you admitted misbehaving too - something I actually deeply suspected from the outset because of your attitude. One can never be so sure on forums though so I tried to be general. Everyone makes mistakes - so long as we learn from them. ;)
