First post from Long Time Flightinfo, ProPilot User...

My name is William, and I'm a Forumaholic.

This is my first post.

I've known Doug on the internet since 1998/1999 (?) and in person since 2000/2001.

I'm finally converting to the Dark side after years as a Moderator on FI and poster on ProPilot (any of you remember that site?).

From what I've seen so far, this forum maintains the dignity of forums past without taking itself too seriously.

I wish you success!
William

PS - That's my Little Princess (4 older brothers).

So help out one of the unwashed masses, huh? I just drive little limos around, so I don't know what all the nicknames are for you bus drivers. What's a "-400"?

I haven't gotten to use it yet - one trip to Sao Paulo, none to Africa yet. I'm on reserve next month, so you never know.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I can certainly say that this forum is not like any I've been on before.

I look forward to insulting and challenging all of you regarding your thoughts on life and aviation - I make Doug look like...well, you'll have to make up your own mind.
