Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Just to clarify this for the public Lee - are you saying you're; 1. a sad eccentric, that wears jumpers, or 2. you're a wearer of sad eccentric jumpers. This is an important distinction...reputations are at stake here mate, the nation needs to know - LHF's cameras are rolling BEB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nasa_steve Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 Posted by Chris Bott on 09/10/2011 10:45:03:Posted by nasa_steve on 09/10/2011 01:00:40: isn't it amazing the electric bashers always seem to take advantage Nasa I'm an electric basher, I took BEB's comment in the spirit it was intended - as a joke! i think you have misread my intent whenever Electric flight is mentioned there is always someone who will jump all over it with derogatory comments about viability to how only anoraks fly electric etc etc i call these people electric bashers not the people who fly electric models.......... AND yes i do realise it was a joke i'm not that retarded..... just stating that there is always someone who insists on remarking about electric flight.... th irony being the flightline at any event these days has more and more ELECTRIC models on it as people realise you don't need to be an eccentric anorak to fly electric models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Bott - Moderator Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Steve I think electric is so mainstream these days that the electric bashing and indeed the IC bashing jokes are just a nod to the recent past when most modellers did one or the other. If I think an "oily" is being serious then I just assume he feels threatened (PS - everyone else, this is just a joke too..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Steve - I repeat - I fly electric models - and ic models - and I have a sense of humour. Actually at this instant in time I have more operational electric models than ic (thanks to a recent mishap ) I really think your being a bit over sensitive mate. It comes to a poor pass when we modellers can't make a joke. It wasn't even an anti-electric joke, the whole point was it would have been just as boring to the others had he talked ic!
