no but you were applying that exact same criteria when the subject was Clarkson, which at least seems hypocritical

Exactly the same criteria as what?
When talking about Clarkson, I was expressing my informed opinion. I have watched the show, have seen him do other things, and have read his work (and his ghastly opinions on how society should revolve around him).
Note that saying "I have watched the show, have seen him do other things, and have read his work (and his ghastly opinions on how society should revolve around him), and he's crap" is several worlds away from saying "I don't know anything about [name], but she's crap".
One is an informed opinion, the other is an ill-informed opinion, which would only be stated in earnestness by someone with idiotic tendencies.

So ... what is it about this "Top Gear" ? Are we really talking about a program about cars ? Is THIS making such a fuss ?!?
I honestly did not know that there were still people watching programs about cars.

I went flying last sunday and for the first time I had somebody along who made a little video clip of my takeoff and even managed to keep the heli in the picture for a time.
It's the T-Rex 450, not the bigger T-Rex 550 yet, but the little guy really flies well. the only odd thing is that 'meow' sound at every right turn, but never at a left turn.
My guess is that the rudder limits need to be readjusted and the noise comes from the tail rotor when the pitch slider touches some moving part.
Here is the short video: We do it in the air![^]
Sorry, no crash!

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

Nice flight, and nice heli! Congrats!
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Thanks. The weather will be better this weekend and we may take along a better camera and a tripod this time. Meanwhile I have adjusted he rudder limits and hopefully this weird sound is now gone.

Happy Birthday, Cornelius! I wish you low internal resistance and steady direct current flow for years to come!

Yeah. At my age internal resistance to movement becomes a problem! Thanks!

Congratulations. What kind of cake are we going to have?

Sounds very good, but I was long enough in Texas to appreciate a glass of Jack Daniel's as well.

Aah yes! Jack Daniels' Tennessee whiskey. Excellent for everyday lubrication, but for special occasions there are a number of good Irish or Scottish alternatives around.

According to my calculations, I should be able to retire about 5 years after I die.
