Attitudes like these, held by managers and pilots, are a real indication that the helicopter culture in Canada is in serious trouble.
Cap probably has a managerial position in Manitoba. In response to an opinion with which he obviously did not agree he relpied:
This man, who has a position of some responsibility, seems prone to making his points by threatening juvenile frat house pranks and then, if that doesn't work, actual physical violence.
In another reply, he describes his method of computing weight and balance. The flying public should be aware of the cavalier attitude that many helicopter pilots have when dealing with an important logistical aspect of the aircraft in which they are about to fly. This seems perilously close to irresponsibility.
407 Driver casts the following insult at Germans.
[] -heads is of course a reference to 'square heads'. Do you really think this impresses people? Do you not think that perhaps the odd German citizen visits this forum? On behalf of the 'professional' helicopter pilots in Canada, an apology is offered. 407 Driver reveals himself to be dispoditious.
4961 seems to be a bit thin skinned. One hopes that when he is angry, he is not violent. He replies in part to a critisism of his treatise on heliskiing flying technique with:

In my military days, you would have automatically found your bedsheets "Frenched" tonite, with potato chips included, for a comment like that. Say it again and 30 guys would have put you in the ice cold showers for 30 minutes.

Sisyphus ------- my friend, if you have to weigh each passenger and each item to know what your 'all-up gross' is, then you got a pile of learning to do yourself. I'll pull my a/c into a low hover, 'out of ground effect' and tell you exactly whether I have enough power and am legal or not. If you can't do that, then you better get learning quickly. If you've been flying your a/c for some time and STILL need a scales to tell you what your a/c weighs on take-off are, or if your legal, then you have 'twisted metal and some serious pain' in your future sir.

Given the [] -heads here never improve their bad Wx areas, They ski all the tree runs on WX day 1 and 2, then ask us to go up above treeline on days with fairly flat light.

Have you ever done any heliskiing? I'm not trying to be too smug here, but you've pissed me off.
